Firmware 4.0 for the Nikon Z9 was released on 13th June 2023 and brought a new Auto Capture menu that effectively allows the camera to start taking photographs once a preset series of conditions have been met - it effectively turns the camera into one of the most expensive and most advanced trail cameras available.

The Nikon Z9 DK-33 eyepiece is a flat rubber disc that doesn’t extend back from the camera to enable a comfortable shooting position. This hack shows how to replace the eyepiece with the DK-19 eyecup from previous DSLRs.

With the Z9, Nikon released a camera that combined the best of the Z7ii and D850, with the best of the D5/D6, creating a state of the art flagship mirrorless camera.
