The firmware update for the already-impressive Nikon Z6 II and Z7 II cameras is coming this month.
Nikon ranked third behind Canon and Sony within the global digital cameras market in 2020. It will be difficult for Nikon to catch up in 2021 (there are too many competitors, and therefore the market’s been gradually shrinking since 2013). Still, it could happen to count on what the corporate has future.
It took approximately every day, but Nikon USA finally posted an English announcement following Nikon Japan’s update.
Firmware Version 1.10 Release Date
Nikon USA has announced that on February 25, it’ll release a pair of firmware updates (Version 1.10) for its Z6 II and Z7 II mirrorless cameras.
In addition to fixing some bugs, the update will allow you to shoot 4K video at 60 frames per second (albeit limited to Nikon’s cropped DX-based recoding format at Normal quality). Eye-AF performance has been improved to detect smaller eye faces.
Firmware Ver. 1.10 also supports RAW video output to Blackmagic Design external recorders and enables recording in Blackmagic RAW format or ProRes RAW format.
It’s also now possible to regulate the ISO and color temperature settings in movie Pro Version 10.4.9 and later when shooting ProRes RAW video to the Atomos Ninja V external recorder.
