The Nikon Z9 features a professional body, speedy autofocus performance, and 8K video resolution at up to 30 frames-per-second. The company says it's a well-rounded camera that's suited for both filmmakers and still photographers.
According to Nikon, the Z9 features a sensor size of 35.9 x 23.9 mm. It's based on a new 45.7-megapixel PX format sensor that features a stacked design for faster readout speeds and virtually no rolling shutter distortion. The image processor has also been upgraded to a new EXPEED 7, which contributes to fast performance throughout.
As far as battery life, the Z9 sports "the world's longest record time" of more than 2 hours when shooting at 8K UHD and 30 fps. The Nikon Z9 also features a 3.2-inch touchscreen LCD and a durable body.
Alongside the new camera, Nikon has also introduced a number of new additions to its Nikkor lens lineup. That includes a new Nikkor Z super-telephoto lens that can cover a focal length from 100mm to 400mm.
The company says that the Nikon Z9 flagship camera will be available later in 2021 and will start at $5,499.95. Shoppers can preorder the Z9 at Adorama and at B&H.

the big three sell to sports, photojournalists, wildlife, fashion and other areas where quick focus, shooting and fast bursts are required, these bigger format cameras are for more contemplative uses, such as portrait, landscape, etc.
they can both be used for product shots and portraits of course, but generally the really high resolution isn’t needed there.
