Nikon officially announced…. a Z9 mirrorless camera teaser



After I stayed up the whole night waiting for the Z9 mirrorless camera to be announced, I woke up this morning to a new… Z9 mirrorless camera teaser. So my report yesterday was for a new teaser, not the real announcement which is why I was getting conflicting information. Expect the final official Z9 release in late October or early November which was the original rumored date.

Here is the first Z9 teaser video (this post will be updated multiple times in the next few hours, so please refresh this page to get the latest version):

Nikon Z9 announcement tonight?


The Nikon Z9 could officially be released tonight after midnight EST (October 5th). I am still trying to confirm this information. I am also not sure if this will be the official announcement to the public or just an internal presentation to dealers. Some stores in Europe already have the Nikon Z9 on their website and those same stores are known to create new product listings only after they get the official info from Nikon – for example (there are others as well which I will not mention here):


If the Nikon Z9 is announced tonight, shipping should start at the end of October or in early November, but expect the wait time to be very long given the current global parts shortage and shipping crisis. Prepare for a long Z9 pre-orders wait time.

Update – another date I heard for the Z9 announcement is October 13th.

The latest set of rumored Nikon Z9 specifications can be found here:
