Nikon Z9 Firmware Update Version 3.10 Released
Nikon has released a major firmware update version 3.10 for the Nikon Z9 mirrorless camera. It adds support for NIKKOR Z 85 mm f/1.2 S lenses, improves focus accuracy, frame advance rate high-frequency and fixes several issues.
The Nikon Z9 is one of the most powerful cameras on the market, capable of up to 30 fps shooting in JPEG or 20 with Raw capture, and able to record 8K/30 video, with the promise of 12-bit Raw 8K/60 capture in a future firmware update. It’s also one of relatively few cameras on the market to completely forego a mechanical shutter, a design decision made possible by the impressively fast read-out speed of the new sensor.
Nikon Z9 is available for pre-order and currently selling for $5,496.95 at Amazon, B&H, Adorama. You can see the details of Nikon Z9 Firmware Update Version 3.10 as well as download link.

- Improved the frame advance rate during burst photography with optional flash units.
- Fixed the following issues:
- The [Retouch] > [Trim] item in the playback “i” menu would in rare cases create distorted copies or not permit selection of the desired crop.
- Copies created by blending a large number of pictures together using the [Retouch] > [Lighten] item in the playback “i” menu would sometimes exhibit a green color cast.
