DP review said that the low light autofocus setting will slow down the focus speed. I've never actually tested this myself. I've just assumed there must be some 'side effect' otherwise, Nikon wouldn't give you a choice. Thanks for giving recommendations and clearly explaining the the rationale behind each.
Hi, so if I put setting to apply settings to live view to OFF, and I have the auto ISO turned off, what will happen? If I set auto ISO to on, then I worry that the ISO will jump up so high that the image will be REALLY noisy. Does that make sense? Or am I not understanding this? Also, I am literally crying over here because I have NEVER seen someone change AF-C to focus, BUT it makes so much sense! I really messed up on some images on my Z7ii and many of them were out of focus. I actually sent an email to a company saying I want to sell this camera... at a loss! I'm hoping to go out and try again and see if it improves. One other question, when I press AF-ON, the focus inside the viewfinder does not turn green- it stays red but it does focus. Is this supposed to happen?
Hi Anne, you have a number of questions here. I will answer them one by one. If you set apply settings to live view off, and auto iso is off, the camera will increase the gain while focusing, but when it takes a picture it will use whatever settings are set on the camera. If the camera is in manual, you will get whatever those settings give you. (This is actually the setup for most flash photography.)
Concern over auto iso going too high: Good news here. Auto ISO has settings for maximum ISO, and minimum shutter speed. You set these up in the auto ISO menu.
AF-On, and focusing. If the camera is in AFC, then the focus boxes don’t turn green, they stay red. Kind of counter intuitive I know, but the camera is constantly focusing, so Nikon keeps them red. If you turn on AFS, AF-On should turn back to green.
Yes, but why is it so complicated. By the time I remember all of that, or consult my notes, the live event will have finished. or the weather will have changed
The learning curve is a bit high I agree. After a while it becomes automatic. You can also use U1,U2,U3 to save settings for different situations. I personally take about 15 min before each shoot to ensure all my settings are as I want them.

I have not noticed this either.

Why z6ii in focus slow with out touch
