The Nikon Z9 features professional-grade weather sealing equivalent to the Nikon D6, providing high resistance to dust, drips, and extreme humidity, though it is not fully submersible.
No, the Nikon Z9 is the first flagship to use an electronic-only shutter. Its stacked sensor scan rate is so fast it eliminates rolling shutter distortion without needing mechanical parts.
Using the EN-EL18d battery, it is rated for approximately 740 shots (CIPA) or up to 170 minutes of video recording, significantly longer than most mirrorless cameras.
The Z9 features dual slots that both support CFexpress Type B and XQD cards, though CFexpress is required for high-bitrate 8K video and maximum burst speeds.
