Nikon Z9 Teardown: A Look Inside the Monster Flagship Mirrorless Camera

Speaking of the lens mount, we received these images from a customer whose lens ring snapped off their camera. They didn’t specify whether this occurred due to being dropped or if it simply broke on its own weight, but we offered our best analysis of the damage. First, as we’ve seen, Nikon only uses four screws to mount the lens ring, which is on the lower side compared to five in Canon and six in Sony .

Looking at the front, we see this now has three function buttons, one more than the Z7 II. We also see the return of the 10-pin and flash sync ports, which have been missing from the Nikon mirrorless cameras. Beneath that is the focus mode buttons, which are in a more ergonomic space. This isn’t the first Nikon mirrorless with a unique screen-mount system. There was the Z50, which had a screen that flipped back around the bottom of the camera for an awkward selfie mode, and of course, there’s the full articulation screen they implemented on the Z-FC.

On its left shoulder, similar to the D850 and D6, is the knob that holds four buttons: mode, burst photo size/rate, bracketing, and flash controls. Along its base is a wheel for setting the shooting mode. On the right shoulder, we see the standard display showing the current picture settings. Wow, look at the size of that ribbon cable! It’s not just a ribbon cable, it’s a streamer cable. It’s an entire bolt of flex-cable. It’s bigger than Jared’s thumb. Of course, it’d have to be thick, considering how many buttons and connections are on that panel; there’s a lot of data being transferred through there.Now we’re at the motherboard. They designed the heatsink frame around the Expeed 7 processor, which will transfer heat out while guiding it to the shell.

Interesting tear down of the NikonZ9. But what was NikonUSA thinking using only 4 screws to attach the lens mount flange to the magnesium body? My Nikon D700s and D850 both have 5 screws. Much more robust. Never had problems, nor did lenses snap off the flange! photography

These teardowns always interest me and yet make me cringe at the same time haha

Nikon Z 800mm f/6.3 VR S Review: In a Class of Its OwnReview: The Nikon Z 800mm f/6.3 VR S is an anomaly. A lens with this kind of focal length, aperture, and light weight shouldn’t be so easy to use and inexpensive. Nikon could have charged double for it and it would still be a good deal. hope sony release one but as a zoom lens.. like 200-800f7.1
