Awesome video and pics Kip. I just purchased the 800 for my Z9 as well and delivery is tomorrow. I couldn't find one new and purchased one used but perfect. May I ask what were your video settings? AF-F Wide Large 4K 60 or 120 Standard Color Profile? What is your impression of the Nikon Lut?

Congrats, Hank, on the 800mm and the Z9! For videos, I’ve generally been shooting at 4K, 120fps, using now the 265 10bit profile, set to Standard. I think the Nikon Lut is fine (there are 2 iirc - one better than the other) and work with the N-Log setting from the camera obviously. Having said that, for me, the color correction is time consuming and really slows down my timeline processing - at least with my computer which is pretty decent - though I don’t believe I’m set up properly to have my graphics card help with the processing. I use Adobe Premier Pro to process my videos. This video was primarily at 30fps from the camera since it was so dark out early on. The 1/60th SS really helps as compared to the 1/250 for 120fps. I still prefer 120fps because I like to slow down a bunch of the video to 25% (30 fps). I also need to dabble with slowing it down to 50% to help smooth out the video and hide some shake. A lot for me to work on. Doing video is pretty hard IMO compared to taking stills - smooth panning is a bear and camera shake is very noticeable. Also need to keep the sensor clean - tough to fix blotches in video. Good luck, Hank!

Forgot to mention, for video, I indeed have it on AF-F. I generally have it on full screen 3D for video. This becomes a problem when the duck gets around other ducks as you can imagine. There are times I turn the manual focus ring to lock focus on my subject (with focus peeking on). The autofocus does pretty good IMO, but my frame of reference is limited given that I was trying to do video last year with my D850! If you aren’t good at pulling manual focus, forget about video with the D850! This Z9/mirrorless is such a treat - totally spoiled.

One other tip - program the ability to change between FX and DX on a button of your preference. Move to DX if the animal Is far away and you’d likely crop in post anyways. It helps the auto-focus greatly in video and even in stills. Wether the camera can ‘see’ better or if it’s just the photographer than can hold on point better, or a combination of both, it really seems to help with animal detection when the animal is larger in the frame.
