Nikon Z8 & Z9 Custom Controls Worksheet

Attention Z8 and Z9 Owners!

Do you find setting your custom controls a little…daunting?

Let’s face it – there are a ton of options and a lot of places to put them on the Z8 and Z9 and keeping track of everything is tough.

That’s why I’ve created this free worksheet for setting up your custom controls (shooting) menu in the Z8 and Z9!

I have included a table that allows you to fill in each customization you set for the Z8 and Z9, making it easy to keep track of what you have and haven’t programmed as you work (and it’s handy afterward to remember what you put where).

In addition, I’ve listed two pages of customizations that are handy for wildlife photographers, along with some brief notes. This little worksheet will make customizing your camera go soooo much smoother – I know it’s made my life easier.

Again, 100% free to anyone, and feel free to share it if you like:

Download Note: If your browser opens the PDF instead of downloading it, you can usually save it by going to the File menu and selecting Save or Save As.

PS – I’m in the final editing stages for my current update to the Z8/9 Setup Guide. It’s added the new 4.0 firmware options for the Z9 and some new stuff, too – over 80 pages of new material so far. I’m trying to get the update done and out by the end of the month (and yes it’s a free update if you own the book).

Thanks Steve, your info on the Z8 made getting to grips with it so much easier than if I’d had to do it from a standing start

If your Nikon Z8 is going back then please tell us why? I love the notes and sharing my experiences with card readers and PD power supplies. Its going to be invaluable before my next trip. It is already an adventure.

Excellent thank you Steve. I can transfer everything over to this new worksheet from the handwritten scrap of paper with all of my chicken scratches of settings, then crossing them out , adding new ones etc. based on your ” The ultimate..set up guide ”book.

That is wonderfully helpful Steve. Thank you so much for all the work you put in, not just on this but all your other content as well.
My Z8 is with Nikon again (!) but is coming back on Monday and I will undoubtedly go through my set up using this worksheet.
Best wishes,
David
