TNC Take – As per rumors, we will have an APS-C Mirrorless camera announcement from Nikon. But, at the same time, we are not so sure about the specs of a camera. It’s a high APS-C DX-Format Mirrorless camera OR a Nikon Z30, we need more confirmation over that.
When I first heard this news, I thought Fuji is now into the rebranding of sigma lenses. ? But, after looking at the core specification of the Fuji Lens, lens design and aperture range its looks like it’s a Fuji creation.
A F8 Lens at 600mm ? – Fujinon XF150-600mm f/5.6-8
F8 at 600mm? who will use the fuji teleconverters with the Lens then? Btw, if the aperture range of the upcoming lens is correct then it makes a large space for Fuji own 150-600 Contemporary and sports lens with f/5-6.aperture range.
Details from Fuji Lens development press release issued on sep, 2 2021 It is a super-telephoto zoom lens with a focal length that covers 150-600mm (35mm equivalent: 229-914mm equivalent), which is the longest in the history of the “X series”. Taking advantage of the focal length from telephoto to super-telephoto, it is ideal for shooting distant athletes and wild animals. In addition, the compact design that maximizes the advantages of the “X-mount system” provides high mobility such as comfortable handheld shooting.
Nikon announced a Major firmware update for the Nikon Z9 camera. The firmware update uplifts the overall core specification of the Nikon Z9 camera to the next level.
They have done a lot of work to make Z9 a perfect cinema camera,
Nikon Z9 becomes the first camera in Nikon to show a waveform monitor
Primary features of firmware version 2.00 for the Z 9
1. Evolution of video features such as RAW video internal recording in 12-bit 8.3K/60p
This version update enables internal recording in two different 12-bit RAW video formats — N-RAW and ProRes RAW HQ*1. The new format, Nikon’s proprietary N-RAW, offers recording with a file size approximately half that of ProRes RAW HQ, providing longer recording time. It supports up to 8.3K/60p and 4.1K/120p when shooting in the FX-based video format. Up to 4.1K/60p can be supported in the FX-based video format with ProRes RAW HQ. A Full-HD mp4 proxy file suitable for transfer and editing is generated at the same time as RAW video file generation in either format. You can record a video on a compact system without an external recording device attached and achieve full-scale editing by taking advantage of rich 12-bit tonal gradation utilizing video editing software*2. Other new features include a variety of useful video functions, such as recording in high-resolution 4K UHD/60p oversampled from 8K.
2. Various features added with consideration given to video recording
With firmware version 2.00 for the Z 9, operability in video recording is also remarkably improved by adding useful features. The red REC frame is displayed on the viewfinder and monitor during recording to indicate recording is in progress, preventing mis-pressing of the rec button. Also, video recording settings, such as frame size and rate or audio, can be confirmed on a single screen with View Video Info. The Waveform Monitor can confirm the brightness levels according to the subject position. In addition, when recording video in M mode, ISO sensitivity can be adjusted in 1/6 steps, enabling finer exposure adjustment while preventing ISO from increasing more than needed.
3. Pre-Release Capture acquires decisive moments more securely than ever before
The version update introduces the Pre-Release Capture for the first time in a full-frame mirrorless camera. This new feature records images for up to a second before the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down during High-Speed Frame Capture+ for still shooting. For instance, you can capture the moment when a baseball bat hits a ball even when pressing the button all the way down after you see the batter hit the ball while half pressing the button. The screen display for High-Speed Frame Capture+ is improved by adding the Release Timing Indicators, so that users can visually recognize the shutter release timing. In addition, version 2.00 allows you to jump to the first frame of each continuously shot sequence during playback. This makes workflow more comfortable for sports or bird photographers who tend to use high-speed continuous shooting.
4. Improved AF performance, including Custom Wide-Area AF with 20 options
The updated firmware newly adds Custom Wide-Area AF, which is similar to the Group-Area AF featuring 17 options that is highly evaluated with the D-SLR camera, Nikon D6. The pattern of AF area arrangement is selectable from 20 options for stills and 12 for videos, realizing the capture of main subjects in a wide range of scenes. Since it also supports subject detection, you can nail the decisive moment with perfect focus on an athlete behind obstacles in hurdling, for example, by setting the AF area to the upper half of the frame. Also, through reassessment of the algorithm, AF stability, tracking performance, and subject detection in low-light situations have been enhanced.
5.Other features
Motion Blend function overlays a series of subject movements during continuous shooting into a single still image in-camera without using editing software.
With the Save Consecutive Frames function, frames in a selected section of footage can be saved as a series of JPEG still images while the playback is paused.
Main points for the Nikon Medium-Term Management Plan for 2022-2025
Concentrate management resources in high value-added products and mirrorless cameras (meet expectations of professionals and hobbyists and raise ASP 20%)
Bolster the Z mount system by expanding lens lineup (50+ lenses and a 2+ lens attach rate)
Appeal to video creators by strengthening video functions
Strengthen remote operation and automatic image capture features to meet professional needs
Focus on licensing business
Earnings plan: achieve revenue of ¥200.0B and an Operating profit margin of 10% on a stable basis
The Goal of Nikon is to Create 50+ Z Mount Lenses as well as an in-camera division It’s really clear that Nikon wants to create a more smart video-centered camera to appeal to a bit wider consumer base in the market.
Keep in mind smart camera doesn’t mean a smartphone-type camera with Android or iOS, it means a camera with better connectivity, a camera with a very well artificial intelligent autofocusing mechanism, and remote storage availability.

We are getting many questions related to the arrival of the Nikon Z6 Mark 3 camera. Although, the Nikon rumor mill is silent on this, let’s talk about the scheduled arrival date of Nikon Z6 series cameras.
Camera
Arrival Date
Nikon Z6
Aug 2018
Nikon Z6 II
Oct 2020
Nikon Z6 III
Aug-Oct 2022
So as you can see, if Nikon goes on its scheduled announcement date then for sure we will have a Nikon Z6 Mark 3 camera announcement this year in 2022. But, as we all know Nikon is working on Z8, and also the Z5 Mark II schedule announcement date is 2022. So, there is a strong possibility that Nikon may delay the announcement of the Z6 Mark II in favor of Z5 II and Z8.
We will post more updates if we get any information related to the upcoming Nikon Z6 Mark III Camera.
