I have a z7ii and just bought a z9. I have been studying the focus modes for some time. You are the first one to point out how subject tracking does not work with dynamic range. Thank You
Great to hear! It can't be a bit of a learning curve coming for the DLSR!
I did a video on 'Nikon Z9 and Z8: 3D Tracking vs Focus and Recompose' it covers a bit of this as well
Great video explanation for how Nikon AF works
Brilliant content. Well done. The info is so good, and your expertiese is very evident. If you could improve the audio a touch this chanel could be huge because you're really great.
That’s really interesting and helpful, thank you for taking the time to do that. I’m hiring a Z8 for the weekend which will be my first experience of mirrorless. I’ve had a D610 for some years now, with various dSLRs and SLRs before that, so I’m expecting quite a jump in focus ability. I’ve watched lots of videos with some really helpful ones from Steve Perry and Hudson Henry, but this is the first time I’ve seen the areas and their nuances explained this way - super helpful, thanks.
I was skeptical when I saw the first part of your video. But after watching it I have to say, you nailed it. Very easy to understand. Nice job! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the clear explanation with real life application. Cheers!
You're welcome!
