Hi Nelson. I agree. But the a1 is better for many other reasons as well. Including it’s lighter weight, Zebras, and the fact that it is far simpler to use. Not to mention 30 fps at 51 MP as compared to 20 fps with smaller raw files. But the fact is that many folks have stuck by Nikon; The guide is for them.

with love, artie

Whike the Z9 is a huge step up for Nikon, it’s pretty clear it is not in same class (auto focus ) compared to the A1. Steve Perry from Backcountry gallery owna both rigs, and has tested extensively. His conclusion is the Sonys AF tracking and lock on aquisition is better with Sony.
