New firmware updates for the Nikon Z7 II, Z6 II, Z7, Z6, Z5, and Z50 mirrorless cameras are now officially released. You can see the details on the latest firmware updates below and also head over to Nikon to download it.
Firmware Ver. 1.20 for the Z7 II and Z6 II offers increased AF performance, including faster focusing when shooting with AF in low light situations. Further, AF usability when using an external Speedlight will also increase, through improvements to detection performance in scenes where it was difficult to detect faces and eyes, as well as improvements to subject visibility during live view shooting. In addition, tracking frames used for face and eye detection, as well as subject-tracking AF have been improved, enabling smoother and more stable shooting.
The new firmware Ver. 1.20 for the Z 7II and Z 6II, firmware Ver. 3.30 for the Z 7 and Z 6, firmware Ver 1.10 for the Z 5, and firmware Ver. 2.10 for the Z 50 is now available for download.
