Nikon Z9

Nikon's flagship professional mirrorless. The Z9 was the first mirrorless to eliminate the mechanical shutter entirely, delivering 45MP, 8K/30p RAW, and 20fps burst in a full pro sports body with the deepest weather sealing in the Z lineup.

✅ Great For
⚡
Sports & Action Built for professional sports — 20fps, 120fps JPEG burst, and subject detection AF.
🦅
Wildlife Animal AF and durability for field use in challenging weather conditions.
📰
Photojournalism Rugged, fast, and reliable with built-in LAN for rapid image transfer.
🎬
Vlogging & Video Outstanding video specs — size and weight make it less practical for solo creators.
🏔️
Landscape 45MP and weather sealing are excellent for landscape. Carry weight is a compromise.
⚠️ Not Ideal For
✈️
Travel Extremely heavy and large — a second, lighter body is recommended for travel.
