Aside from the ‘normal’ idiots like Trump<\/strong> and Piers Morgan<\/strong>, there’s a guy who manages to rub just about every level-thinking photographer up the wrong way – drumroll….Ken Rockwell<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from having invented every known photographic process and owning particularly ugly kids, this jerk runs an ‘advert’ site where you can click to supposedly get savings on photographic material, oh and headphones (see the link? No me neither…)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His most recent article concernes the non-existence of the proposed new flagship NIKON<\/strong> mirrorless camera, the Z9<\/strong>. According to Kockwell \u00ab\u00a0…the Z9 is a unicorn because while we all know what it’s called, and what it looks like, it doesn’t exist.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u00a0If Nikon ever does actually sell a Z9, it could be awesome – but since I can’t shoot anything today with it, I don’t care.\u00a0\u00bb And in a fit of pique, he napalmed Cheltenham….The Gumbies, Monty Python<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What a wanker – fairly clear to all concerned that Nikon<\/strong> haven’t been keeping him in the loop like in the old days because his web site is so full of shite, and so now he’s having to get all his info from the web….just like his dopey pal \u00ab\u00a0The Angry Photographer\u00a0\u00bb and everyone else – it’s the latest \u00ab\u00a0guess-a-thon\u00a0\u00bb…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The camera is slated for being available this year, which means that it obviously does exist – we’re way past pre-production, and I imagine there are a few well known Nikon<\/strong> ambassadors out there, with signed and sealed confidentiality agreements testing this little baby at this very moment. Visibly there have been three ‘stacked’ CMOS sensors proposed, 45, 50 and 60MP which all seem extremely high density for this kind of camera (I’m thinking shooting speed and low light sensitivity here<\/em>) but with a redesigned processing engine (or two perhaps, like the Z6ll, Z7ll<\/em>) and the fact that the ‘stacked’ sensor is demonstrably more sensitive\/lower noise, it might work… Time will tell which sensor they finally choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m really keen to see what is finally presented when this becomes available – but I’m not going to stamp my feet and complain that it’s not available NOW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It won’t replace my Z series bodies, for the moment at least, but if the auto-focus and low-light capabilities are indeed enhanced, this could be a VERY interesting insight how NIKON<\/strong> see the future of the Z mount.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
