Some last-minute press photo leaks of the Nikon Z9 camera and new lenses (Nikkor 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 S and Nikkor Z 24-120mm f/4 S) – see also the leaked Z9 specs and Z9 price.
Here are the press photos:
The Nikon Z9 camera and new lenses will be available for preorder shortly after the official announcement (either tonight after midnight or tomorrow morning around 8 am EDT). The good part is that some stores already have listings for the Z9 that will convert to pre-orders at some point in the next 12+ hours:
The Nikon Z9 Amazon listing will come later – usually a day or two after the announcement.
Here are some additional links to check for outside of the US – I will update them once the Z9 is listed:
Given the current global part shortage and shipping issues, I expect the Nikon z9 to be out of stock for a long time. Make sure you place a pre-order early even if you are still not sure if you need one – you can always cancel the pre-order later.
One of the lenses expected to be announced tomorrow is the Nikkor 24-105mm f/4 S lens. Nokishita now reports that the lens will actually be Nikkor Z 24-120mm f/4 S which is a standard Nikon zoom focal range and already exists for F-mount.
For the launch of the Z9 camera, Nikon will have more than a simple press release out. Nikon USA already has a countdown to the Nikon Z9 event online tomorrow at 8 am EDT. You can watch the event live on YouTube and Facebook and of course, I will have full coverage here on the blog and social media (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram):
