(LINKS BELOW): Nikon’s Z8 Firmware 2.0 is a seriously big deal. This blends some powerful features heretofore limited to the Z9 and Zf making the Z8 a very state of the art powerhouse. In this video, I’ll show how to update the firmware, walk through some new features like autocapture, exposure delay and pixel shift and show you how this update changes my Z8 menu and control setup.
