I’ve followed Morten Hilmer almost since he started as a youtuber & am so pleased that he is starting to get the attention & recognition he deserves & finally being made a Nikon Ambassador. He is someone that is not just an incredible photographer, but human being, which if you’ve watched his videos will know what I mean. Ricci, for me has put the best promotional Z9 videos out there to date & if I had a question about anything Nikon would ask him. Fantastic video lads, I would personally like to see more videos of Ricci & Morten in the future. ‘Gonna watch it again! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Exactly the same what I‘m thinking! So happy for Morten!
Morten is a master when it comes to his wildlife and nature photography.
Always a huge pleasure following Morten around. So knowledgeable, so humble. A great inspiration and mentor.
Good to see Morten getting some recognition!
Well done Nikon! For recognizing true ambassadors, experts and passionate photographers.
It took a while, but Nikon recognized the importance of Morten Hilmer to wildlife photography and the importance of his knowledge to us Nikon users. It's satisfying to have Hilmer as a Nikon ambassador.
Great to see Morten and Ricci collaborating on this video! I never get tired if seeing these two photographers sharing their knowledge, passion, and enthusiasm. Very inspiring! A big thanks to Nikon for making it happen too.
Great seeing Morten through a different lens
I love watching Morten work! I LOVE NIKON
I have huge respect for Morten, he is a genuine person and has a fantastic personality. Every situation is always perceived by him in the most positive way possible. If you haven’t already, go check him out!
Morten & Ricci make a great team!
Wow... he is my inspiring Morten Hilmer for wildlife and landscape... and with the Nikon
It was really nice to see Morten and Ricci together. Thank you Nikon.
We're glad you enjoyed it!
I love watching Morten work in the field. His knowledge and woodsmanship is admirable.
Two of my favorite KZheadrs togheter in one video. Awsome! Thank you for this. :)
Amazing clip, Morten’s visual storytelling is simply gorgeous and impactful. Thx Nikon for the exposure.
When we filmed this we had snow, we had wind, we had rain, we had (a little) sun and we had late cold nights… BUT we had Morten, Ricci, our Nikons and my awesome video crew - it could not have been better! Such a privilege to spend time in nature with such talented and passionate people. The Nikon family is the best! #TGSD #StagWatch
Its really inspirting watching Morten and Ricci working together; amazing to see how Morten tracks the animals too, and you start to appreciate wildlife photographers and the hardwork they put into each image - and the Z9, wow.......just WOW!

Well done Morten and crew!
Fantastic. Thank you. 👍📷😎
I'm from Hyderabad, India.. since 3 years I'm following mortin..., Alot people inspired by him.. still continuing.. absolutely love his work 💚💚💪👏
Love it! - Morten "I think I'm going to go over to the right and try and cross the stream" (cold and wet) Ricci "Errrrrr, why don't I go over to the left (nice and dry) so we can get all angles"?
It's great to see Nikon appreciating the huge ambassador Morten have been for years and years. Your z9 looks amazing and I can't wait to get to play with it in the future
Fantastic video. Have always loved Mortens work.
The gear that is coming out these days is amazing, I only wish my savings account could keep up. Until then, I am great full for the gear I have and enjoy getting out there and using it. Watching Morten is a sure way to get you fired up to get outdoors. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic! Thank you.
Such a grand video from two masters. Well done fellas!
So greattttt ans with my favorite widlife photographer MORTEN !!!! Thanks so muchhhh 😍😍😇😇😉😉😉🤓🤓🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🤩😒🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
So pleased you enjoyed it 😊
@@NikonEurope 🤗
Photography with Nikon´s philosophy is a different way of living. Feeled representative with Morten´s words "and at that moment, the skies just basically opened". That happens eventually and the final result looks like an impressionist painting. Thank to Morten´s and Ricci, and of course you Nikon! Salute from Uruguay!
Great video gentleman. Please consider doing more together! 😀
Great video. Looking forward to seeing Mortens version over on his channel when it arrives.
Seriously. Can't wait.
Great video, thanks. So interesting to see two great photographers in action.
Morten and Ricci team up does it get any better.
They make the perfect team!
I watch all of Morten's movies. It is hardened to all harsh climatic conditions. He can become interested in nature photography. Morten loves nature very much and is a promoter of shooting in difficult conditions. The Nikon Z9 breaks new ground in professional photography. I am waiting for the successor of the Nikon Z6II. I hope it will show up this year.
So neat, I love these videos with some of my favorite photographers.
You did a good Job to become Morton as an Ambassador for Nikon!
Nice work Morten and thanks to Nikon for this look at how he works with the new gear
Many times I was curious how the nature photograhs were taken.It is good insight in photographers life.
Hello, What a great par Morten & Ricci supper listing to what they talk about, talking about great par the 400mm f2.8 and the 100mm-400mm zooms very interesting. Just looking forward to getting my 100mm-400mm I just may add the teleconvert to the order. Keep safe, keep well and enjoy life.
Amazing video
Very good video! Morten Hilmer is really a professional. He gives us the chance of getting the insight to the thoughts of someone who really works this pro equipment!
Number one video. Your video blew my mind.
One of the best photography i watch
Awesome to see you two together. I believe I've seen all the videos that you've both done, and it's great that you're having fun and sharing all this information, as well as the experience itself. Great!
1 of my favourite person. Morten Hilmer
Wasnt expecting to see these two together ! Awesome video :)
Love Morten!
Both are superb ambassadors for Nikon, hoping to do some of the Nikon School training this year.
Nice video 😌
Cool video, and I love Morten's channel so much. Some awesome landscape shots on here and some epic color in the sky. My dust spotting eye saw one at 7:45 center of the image :-p . I bet you anything Ricci noticed it after they posted the video and he is kicking himself... just like if you've ever spent 10-20min trying to get all dust spots off, and then print an image only to realize the faintest dust spot you left behind. Easter egg 😀
I bought a 600mm f4 after watching Morten a few years ago.
Really a big fans morten ♥️ your content is getting more interesting i have been watching your vids since when you got 40k subscribers keep inspiring .😍😍😍😍 Love From India
Awesome material by great reps for Nikon

So cool
Awesome! Is there going to be a longer version of this? It feels like a taster for a full length documentary.
A Vlog has just gone live on Morten’s YT channel
Hi Martyn, there are 3 more videos in this series - we've linked to them in the description. Enjoy 🙂
Morten is lord
Im in kerala ✨ ,i love this video's ❤️
Morten is a wildlife photographer pursang. He will always prefer a long lens over a short lens. maybe nikon should develop a good compact camera so that a wildlife photographer can also photograph landscapes, but with an iphone 13 max pro you can also take very decent landscape photos.
Hallo Ralph, ich verwende bei uns in den Rheinauen gegen die Steckmückenplage "Anti-Brumm". Ich denke das gibt es auch bei euch in AT. Nicht in die Augen bringen, wirkt dann wie Pfefferspray! Das hat logisch aber auch einen Eigengeruch, der u. U. das Wild auch bemerkt. Apropos: ich wasche meine Pirschkleidung mit einem unparfümierten Waschmittel aus dem Jagdhandel, da gibt es auch Duschgel. Geruch ist speziell bei Rehen das größte Problem (Windrichtung). Auch getarnte Kleidung ist sehr empfehlenswert, dito Tarnnetz, Kameracamouflage. Gesicht und Hände tarnen ist ein wichtiger Punkt. Die drei hellen und hellen Flecken sind irre gut zu erkennen. Dazu gilt besonders - wer sich bewegt, vor allem quer zur Richtung, wird entdeckt. Aber nichts desto trotz sind dir tolle Bilder gelungen, Glückwunsch! Noch viel Spaß und Erfolg mit dem neuen Objektiv. Gruß Peter
Amazing
Love the Salt Bae moment at 9:51 😂
😂
Only here to watch Morten do his thing.
👍👍👍👍
Like that 👍🏻
모르텐 힐러👍
Love the story and thank you, Morten! Totally genuine. Still: Too much marketing for me in the way you guide the story. That's just my taste, though. Good content, I think. Thank you, Nikon
wow gud looking video
♥️
I am Nikon 👏👏😉
What would really be great was if we could download directly from the camera to a ssd drive
What camera is used to shoot this episode? A z9 also?
Shot on a pair of Z 9's with a bit of Z 6II goodness too...
Good telephoto lens is very important for wildlife photographer .we have a new lens 650-1300mm f8 is good for it value $249
Apparently,the 8 is powerful.
which is better canon or nikon??
Best
Has anybody have any idea on date release and price tag?
Hi Jonny, the Z 9 has already been released and we are currently awaiting stock to fulfil customer orders. For more information, feel free to visit our website: www.nikon.co.uk/en_GB/product/digital-cameras/mirrorless/professional/z-9

It's just a pity that since ordering the 400mm Z 2.8, you've only found out after repeated inquiries that it will no longer be delivered in 2022. It's a shame that the customers are left in the dark when you're ready to pay the money.

There really is no benefit of a z9 over the Z7 for landscape photography. For Wildlife just buy D500.
I have a D500 which I don’t use for wildlife anymore. I used my Z6 II because of the silent shutter. I have the Z9 and it’s phenomenal. My Z6 II is for landscapes now. This is only because I don’t want to keep changing lenses and rearranging my camera bag layout, I just switch the core units of my bag to what I’m shooting on the day.
Hey guys, I know marketing is important but I love my DSLRs. This fake viewfinder will never get me to switch. No matter how many frames or which eye detection system you will introduced. This Z9 is nothing more then pure computer. Cheap to make and expensive to sale. There is no one mechanical parts in this camera body. I love my D5 and I don’t feel like I have any limitations with my D5 to get a shot. As a still photographer I don’t really need any video features. Z lenses are pure rip-off and Im glad I have many F glass to choose from.
technology evolves. R&D costs need to be covered so yes marketing is important. I've been very happy with my D5, I've had it for years but if you shoot fast wildlife, the Z9 makes life a lot easier. You get to focus more on composition knowing that the AF just does its thing. It's scary how accurate it is. You just stop focusing on keeping things sharp. In terms of the prices for Z lenses, on average they're a bit lighter and a bit sharper compared to the older generation but I agree they're not twice or three times sharper as is reflected in the price. Again R&D needs to be covered. It's like screen technology. When OLED TVs came out they cost a fortune. I still have plenty of F glass that works brilliantly with the Z9. I did buy a 24-70f4 and I can tell you it's sharper and a lot lighter than both the 2.8 F versions for a fraction of the price. For a landscape shooter a D700 is still plenty. It's a different pace. As for video they had to do it. Everybody's doing it and it's a competitive marketplace. I know wildlife photographers that slowly transitioned into video with the D5 and for a few years it was enough but video never was Nikon's strong suit. You can't blame Nikon for staying competitive. The D5 wasn't exactly cheap when it came out either and it delivered. The Z9 delivers for this day and age.
But never forget the 400mm f2.8Z + Z9 is £20,000! I am absolutely sure a great guy like Morten could nail great shots with a used D500 and a used 70-300f3.5-4 (£1000). There are times Morten and Ricci are carrying £40,000 worth of kit. As a former marketing manager for a global corporation I am sure overselling a £6000 camera with a £14,000 in the current climate actually damages the Nikon brand!
