Nikon Japan posted a notice that the new Nikkor Z 28-135mm f/4 PZ zoom lens “has received many more orders than expected, so it may take some time for delivery“:
Nikon issued a similar notice for the Coolpix P1100 but not for the Nikkor Z 35mm f/1.2 S lens.
Nikkor Z 28-135mm f/4 PZ zoom lens pre-order links:
AFP (Agence France Presse) announced that it has successfully validated a certification test of its photos during the US elections via the C2PA standard using a prototype Nikon camera.
In the past few months, Nikon has made several announcements related to the Content Authenticity Initiative (see the links at the bottom of this post). It is safe to assume that we will soon get firmware updates with C2PA Content Credentials support. For now, I have seen only the Z9 and the Z6II models mentioned, but I assume the Z8 will also get this new functionality.
Here are the details:
As I have been already reporting for almost a year, Nikon is expected to introduce Image Cloud support for several other mirrorless cameras. The update for the Nikon. Zf is expected today or tomorrow – Nikon confirmed that (again) on their dedicated CP+ show website:
Zf latest firmware update advance experience
The Zf is now compatible with Nikon Imaging Cloud, and we have a booth where you can try out shooting with imaging recipes, so please come and join us for a touch-and-try.
The new RED V-RAPTOR [X] and Komodo [X] cinema cameras with Nikon Z-mount will also be exhibited at the show:
Nikon USA confirmed on social media that Imaging Cloud compatibility is coming to additional camera models:
I already reported that Nikon Imaging Cloud has scheduled maintenance for February 19 – we may also see firmware updates at the same time for some Z cameras:
The Nikon Zf is probably the first candidate to get support for the Imaging Cloud – a picture of the camera was already spotted on the site months ago:
