- In this movie you can follow me out when I test Nikon's flagship Z9 on fast little birds. Am I happy? Yes, it's amazing what this camera does. See for yourself. The filming is done with 400mm f / 2.8 lens and large area is selected as well as animals. Some parts are filmed with 8K 30fps but the most is 4K 120fps. For the most part, it pleases the eyes perfectly, but my photo position was not always the best. :-)
Below is some info about purple sandpiper.
The purple sandpiper's breeding range extends from the arctic islands of northern Canada, eastwards to Greenland, Iceland, Svalbard and northern Scandinavia across to Western Siberia and the Taymyr Peninsula. In the high arctic the sandpiper breeds at low altitude on the tundra, sometimes far from the coastline, but in the subarctic regions of Sweden and Norway it breeds on barren mountain sides near the limit of the frozen ground. Birds breeding at high latitudes migrate south and spend the winter on rocky shores on both sides of the north Atlantic. They winter along the North America coast as far south as South Carolina and on the eastern Atlantic coast as far south as France and northern Iberia.Birds wintering in northern Scotland and southwest Ireland migrate to Canada Baffin Island and Devon Island to breed.

One word . ..Wow! excellent production from a pro! All I can say is that this Z9 and it's lenses are really magnificent pieces of engineering! It put all else in a shade really? To think with future firmware updates will only enhance the Z9 even better is a scary thought indeed?
Hi and Thanks Hisham😀🙏 Yes, it really is a fantastic camera and it films fantastically well. Exciting to see what upcoming firmware does.
First time on your channel. Wonderful photography! I've had my Z9 since July and also was lucky enough to acquire an 800 PF. In 5 weeks I'm headed to Panama with Glenn Bartley, so I'll have lots of chances to use this combination!
Thanks again Anduril. 😀😀🙏. I appreciate your comments very much and certainly the Z9 is fantastic. Thank you 🙏😀
The images are truly beautiful. The light was fantastic.
Hi Trevor and thanks for your kind comment and for commenting. 😀😀🙏🙏
I am so terrible at my approach! I can never go so close to my subject :(
ha ha 😂 These birds are totally fearless as you can see. Patience and sitting still usually helps.
Thanks! Great gloves by the way, looks like you are ready for a wolf attack.
Hi Dominic and thanks for your comment. 😀🙏 I had forgotten my usual gloves and it was cold to hold the camera in the handle so I took the work gloves. 😂😂😂
Z9? Some of those sandpipers were so close you could have used your phone!
Yes, that was after being there for over an hour when they came closer. Kul😀😀
some really amazing work - TY for sharing.
Thanks Charles 😀😀🙏. I appreciate your comment.
Thanks for sharing, it was very pleasant to watch this.
Thanks 😀🙏 I’m glad that you comment and like my video. 😀
Unbelievable how close they let you get to them....
Thanks. Yes, you just lie still and for a while they get used to it. The Z9 is completely silent so they do not react.
Nice! The Purple sandpiper @ 11:04 for me.
Tack Tord för din kommentar. Det värmer att någon bemödar sig med att kommentera. Ja, det fotot är bra. 😀🙏
Nice video and photo’s . The AF from The Z9 does His work very Well also The photographer 👍😂
😀😀Thanks
Again, very nice footage, Göran. Beautiful birds, and I hope you still could get up after lying more than an hour on your belly 😉
Thank you so much Joost. 😀🙏 Yes, I'm not young anymore and it was cold from below. It is important to keep going as long as you can. Thanks again. 🙏😀
I would like to go to Sweden to see the Surnia ulula
You are always welcome to Sweden. 🇸🇪👍
...great photos nonetheless - as per usual.
Thank you so much Tim. 🙏😀
My favorite winter resident in n.y.c.
Thank you so much for your comment 🙏😀
Superb footage
Thank you for your comment. I really appreciate it. 😀🙏
Great video as always! Thank you so much for your inspiring work! I wish you could comment a little more what you are filming or photographing and what settings you applied like focal length, aperture, shutter speed. I guess that would make it more interesting than just watching the birds and listening to the background music. I think there is so much to learn from you…I just love your images. Maybe you can show us your work-flow for post editing your images. What software do you use? Do you invest much time in post-editing?
Keep it up!!!
Many thanks Ed for your comment and for inspiring me to make better films. my problem is my poor english which makes me hold back my comments but I practice. I lissen to you and I will try to teach more in the future. Many thanks. 🙏😀
Your english is very good, no worries 👍😛🥰
Riktigt fin film och bilder :o)
Tack Lena🙏😀. Snart dags för dig att fota dina tjädrar. Lycka till !👍
Excellent video! And I am happy to share that I received my Z9 today (May 20), which I booked on March 07, 2022!
Some advice please: Between Sigma 150-600 Sports and Nikkor Z100-400, which one should I start with for wildlife and birds? Eventually I would like to go for a 600 F4.
thanks so much. I appreciate your comment. 😀🙏. Personally, I would choose the Nikon Z 100-400 because I think the autofocus is much faster. I actually take the most photos with my Nikon 400 and that's enough. then you can easily put on an extender. Then Sigma's lens is supposed to be great, but the speed of the autofocus determines for me. Good luck with your Z9. 😀
Thanks. Will the speed of autofocus on Nikon F mount 200-500 f5.6 be comparable to Z100-400 ?
@@coachisguru4621 Sorry, I don’t know but I’m pretty sure that it’s faster. I have the 200-500 and it works perfect with the Z9.
Thanks! I shortlisted 200-500 due to its price advantage. And several reviews indicate that it is a good lens.
Vackert!
Stort tack. 🙏😀
👏🏿 Excellent! Beautiful images as usual. The 400mm f2.8 isolates the subjects wonderfully.
Thank you so much Freeman😀🙏. Yes, I am very happy with my 400 mm. I usually drive at f / 3.5
@@Halmstadfoto is it z mount or F mount plz. Enjoying very much your journey as I have same Z9
@@amaimani Thanks Abdul🙏😀 It’s F-mount
Thanks for sharing your work. Nice video footage. What lenses are you using?
Thanks Harish😀🙏 In this video I use Nikon 400 mm f / 2.8 F-mount. I Also use 14-24 , 24-70 , 70-200 all f/2.8 and 200-500 f/5.6, 300 f/4 800 f/5.6 50 f/1.8 and Sigma macro 150 mm f/2.8 Thanks🙏
@@Halmstadfoto Wow so many! I have all them except 800, 200-500, Sigma. I have few others though. My main work is sports here in UK. My z9 arrived early Feb so still learning, wish I had bought two. I still have my D5(2x), D4s & D810 plus all the F mount glass. Only z lens I have is 70-200f2.8
Have fun. I will come to Sweden for the wildlife one day!🙂👍
@@harishchavdampagbaips3597 I Will answer later. 😀
@@harishchavdampagbaips3597 Hi, I have been out building an osprey nest today but now I am home. I have also kept my old cameras. You are so welcome to Sweden. have a nice weekend.
Those purple sandpipers are lovely little birds. You got some great video footage of them. How did you find the autofocus performance for video? And what AF settings did you use for video?
Hi and thanks for your kind comment. 🙏😀 I often use Wide-L and to get focus I have on fn2 programmed a one-point focus. So once I get the focus, I release fn2.
@@Halmstadfoto Great, thanks for the info. People are now posting preview videos of that new Z 800mm f6.3 lens-looks pretty amazing!
@@koolkutz7 Yes. I will look at it but I have the Sigma 800 so we Will see How I do. 😀
It looks nice👍👍👍👍👍
I’m new to your channel as of today . I’m an avid birder - also own the Z9 and looking for help with the modes - what to use and when !!! I’m hoping this video is helpful . Thank you !
Edit to my comment-
Beautiful photos !!!
Would u be willing to share which mode u used for these photos ?? It would be helpful ! The Z9 is very new to me .
They are gorgeous shots . Thank you .
Thank you so much Bernie and I hope you find my movies and photos worth visiting again. Thanks. 😀🙏🙏
@@Halmstadfoto
I love your photos . I edited my comment above … please review that . Thx … I appreciate your response!
@@berniestang2616 I drive completely manually but with autoiso. Apertures down one step and never below 1 / 1000s so Iso must be what it becomes. wide area autofocus with animal detection. That's all
@@Halmstadfoto
Thank you . Super helpful !!
I appreciate!
Merci.
Merci beaucoup pour votre aimable commentaire. 😀🙏
Great video, Great info and Great place!
Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks Artesoro. 😀🙏. Glad you liked the movie. Have a nice weekend.
Snyggt jobbat Göran väldigt fina film sekvenser och bilder 👍👍👍
Tack Lars🙏😀
Hej Göran. Fantastiska filmer👍👍. Kul med välkända miljöer.
Tack Stefan. 😀🙏. Nästa film blir från Munkagårdsfloen. Skulle gärna filma berguven hemma hos dig men man hinner inte allt. 😀
Magnificent images and stunning video, thank-you Goran.
Many thanks Bruce. 🙏😀 I appreciate your comment very much.
I felt like I was on that beach alongside you, such stunning clear images 👍
Thank you so much Stephen. 😀🙏 I'm glad you like the movie.
Beautiful video and birds. Love it. Love my Z9 ❤️ too
Thank you so much Wesley😀🙏 yes it's a great camera
Great Video >> one of the Best Z9 Videos >> Decisions Decisions
thanks Peter. . It warms and motivates me. 🙏😀
Fantastic birds. We get them here but the location they chose means you have to shot from about three feet above them. It means I have to pick a more distant bird to get a lower angle. Great video as usual.
Thank you Thomas🙏😀 Yes, this is perfect and there eat a total of about 30 in the flock.
Gran vídeo y hermosas fotos de uno de los limícolas que más me apasionan. Aquí en la zona norte de España en Asturias todos los inviernos espero con impaciencia su llegada. En nuestro caso el mar Cantábrico suele estar más bravo y hay que fotografiarlos en el rompiente, donde busca capturar su alimento, todo un reto para el fotógrafo. Suelo comprobar el estado del mar así con la pleamar o bajamar para no llevar ninguna sorpresa. De indumentaria me gusta llevar un traje de neopreno de 3 o 5 mm para poder arrastrarme y meterme en el agua que suele estar bastante fría en esta época del año. Lo dicho Göran un vídeo increíble y por supuesto disfrutando del momento. Un saludo.
Gracias Abel. Aquí en este lugar hay dos bahías y por suerte estaban en la bahía tranquila cuando yo estuve allí. También suelo hacerles fotos cuando soplan más y las olas suben. Habrá más acción en esas imágenes. Buen fin de semana.
So fortunate to get so close to the birds there my friend you can really appreciate them from that distance and also get some great images- super video. 👍
Thanks Glenn😀🙏 Yes, of course it is a great advantage that they come so close. if you just lie still, they will come to you.
Beautiful photos and video footage of these Birds.
Thank you so much Victor😀🙏. They were very accommodating.
Purple sandpiper is one of my favorute birds:) great video!
Thank you so much. 😀🙏 Yes, it is a bird that many have as a favorite.
@@Halmstadfoto I can imagine why:) And about Morups Tånge - is it worth visiting all year round for bird photography?
So you just got the Z9 for yourself or was this a loaner (hope it's yours), beautiful video and photos as always you are very didicated to your craft and it shows. You should be a Nikon Ambassador for Sweden. Take care and stay dry.....
Thank you so much Jeffery 😀🙏 I've had the camera for almost 2 months and I'm super happy. I will try to stay dry in the future. 😂😂. Yes, I know I'm talking a lot about Nikon but I'm so happy with my Z9
@@Halmstadfoto I got my Z9 the end of January and I am a generalist , however my focus (pun intended) has been on birds the last 3-4 years and I luv the results with the Z9 but I still kept my D850 for now as a 2nd camera.
@@jeffreyneville9769 glad you also have a Z9 .. I have also kept my Z6II and my D500 as a second camera
Прекрасное видео и фотографии , удачи !
Большое Wowa спасибо и хороших выходных.
