The Nikon Z9 II still without official confirmation:
- Nikonrumors / April 25: The latest rumors suggest that the successor to the Z9 will not arrive before 2027 (perhaps its development will be announced sooner, but you won't have it in your hands in 2026)
- Rumors from April 23, 2026 indicates that, after a previous update on January 7, 2026, the earliest announcement window was now around Q4 2026.
- In the NAB 2026 Nikon confirmed improvements to firmware for Nikon ZR (Log 3G10 with H.265, H.265 codec enhancements and red focus with N-Log/RED NE); This does not amount to an official confirmation of the launch of the Z9 II.
The most recent update links the rumor to supply signals: the current Z9 is reported to be in backorder in several markets, which is interpreted as a possible sign that the production line is busy for the replacement. A possible announcement or development window in 3-6 months is also mentioned.
- We will be updating this page with the new specifications.
