Your Z8 and the book
Darrell Young (digitaldarrell) is working on finalizing The NikoniansPress Mastering the Nikon Z8 book. As the smaller sister of the Nikon Z9, this camera comes with lots of bells and whistles and might be under one or the other Nikonians Christmas tree this season.
The book was rescheduled a few times and Darrell is still working on it. If you have some exceptional shots taken with your Z8, please do chime in! For the others of us, we can scroll through the posts and look at the great shots. Some are really stunning.
Z9 Setup Guide
Team member Ned (Ned_L) has released a new edition of his popular Nikon Z9 Photography Setup Guide. Ned shares it with us as a PDF and makes a note about his Z8/Z9 wildlife workshops. If you have interest in participating on his workshops, please reach out to him.
Z8/Z9 RAW mode and high-speed bursts
A member asked "Does high speed burst exposures restrict RAW files?" The key here is if you are using the High-Speed Frame Capture (HSFC) modes or not. The HSFC modes are denoted with a "C" in front of them, e.g. C30 (30 fps) or C120 (12 fps). If you are not using HSFC, your RAW setting will stay in effect and the images will be stored as RAW up to the max frame rate of 20fps. If you are using HSFC though, the images are stored as JPEG's and the quality is fixed to "JPEG/HEIF normal" (Z9 can also store them as JPEG/HEIF fine).
