During the 2022 Adobe Max conference, Adobe announced a new partnership between the Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) and Nikon to add content credentials in Photoshop for the Nikon Z9 camera:
“Today marks an exciting milestone in our mission as we announce partnerships with industry-leading camera manufacturers, Leica and Nikon, to implement provenance technology into two exhibiting cameras — Leica’s iconic M11 Rangefinder and Nikon’s industry-leading mirrorless Z 9, bringing provenance and authenticity to digital images at the point of capture.
Both partnerships will advance the CAI’s efforts of empowering millions of photographers everywhere to attach provenance to their images at the point of capture, creating a chain of authenticity from camera to cloud. It’s a critical step in bolstering trust to combat the pervasive issues of plagiarism, as well as misinformation and disinformation.”
