Here are the updates<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 [High-frequency flicker reduction] has been added to the roles that can be assigned to camera controls using Custom Setting f2 [Custom controls (shooting)]. For more information, see the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/download.nikonimglib.com\/archive5\/W6ucl00eJUDP05OUASa48lhauA12\/Z9_FU_addendum_(En)04.pdf\">Supplementary Firmware Update Manual<\/a><\/strong>.<br \/>\u2022 Autofocus is now better at tracking small subjects.<br \/>\u2022 Autofocus now produces more accurate results with human portrait subjects detected via eye\/face-detection AF with [Continuous AF] selected for [Focus mode].<br \/>\u2022 Fixed an issue that resulted in the camera focusing on the background when [Single-point AF], [Dynamic-area AF (S)], or [Dynamic-area AF (M)] was selected for [AF-area mode], or when [Wide-area AF (C1)] or [Wide-area AF (C2)] was selected with a custom focus-area size of [1\u00d71].<br \/>\u2022 You can now expect better results from vibration reduction during panning shots taken with the camera pointing up or down and an option other than [Off] selected for [Vibration reduction].<br \/>\u2022 Fixed the following issues:<br \/>&#8211; With certain Z mount lenses, choosing [Focus] for Custom Setting a1 [AF-C priority selection] with [Continuous AF] selected for [Focus mode] would sometimes disable the shutter release even when the subject was in focus.<br \/>&#8211; [Aperture lock] could not be selected for Custom Setting f4 [Control lock] in modes M and A when an F mount lens was attached.<br \/>&#8211; Assigning [Recall shooting functions] to a control using Custom Setting f2 [Custom controls (shooting)] would render [Save current settings] unavailable when an F mount lens equipped with an aperture ring and power contacts was attached.<br \/>&#8211; Auto distortion control would sometimes not be applied to pictures taken with [ON] selected for [Auto distortion control] in the [PHOTO SHOOTING MENU].<br \/>&#8211; The camera would not recognize custom Picture Controls saved to a memory card using the Mac edition of Picture Control Utility 2.<br \/>&#8211; Recalling shooting functions would sometimes result in unexpected changes to exposure if:<br \/>\u25b8 ISO sensitivity was set to a fixed value in mode M,<br \/>\u25b8 an option other than [Exposure maintenance off] was selected for Custom Setting b7 [Keep exp. when f\/ changes], and<br \/>\u25b8 [Recall shooting functions] or [Recall shooting functions (hold)] was assigned to a control using Custom Setting f2 [Custom controls (shooting)] both with no option (or mode M only) selected for [Shooting mode] and with no check next to any of [Shutter speed], [Aperture], and [ISO sensitivity settings].<br \/>&#8211; When [Recall shooting functions] or [Recall shooting functions (hold)] was assigned to a control using Custom Setting f2 [Custom controls (shooting)], subject detection would not function as expected if the setting for [AF subject detection options] recalled by pressing the control differed from the option currently selected for [AF subject detection options] in the [PHOTO SHOOTING MENU].<\/p>\n<p>My <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Z9Settings0722.pdf\">updated settings<\/a><\/strong> for 2.10<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And the hits just keep on coming!
