Nikon just released the previously reported firmware updates for the Nikon Z6II (v1.40), Nikon Z7II (v1.40), and Nikon Z9 (v2.0): Nikon Z6II firmware update version 1.40 Added: Support for NIKKOR Z 800mm f/6.3 VR S lenses, Support for ML-L7 remote controls, Save focus position and Recall focus position * to the roles that can be assigned using Custom Setting f2 in the CUSTOM SETTING MENU, Focus ring rotation range * to the CUSTOM SETTING MENU in position f9, and Switch focus/control ring roles * to the CUSTOM SETTING MENU in position f10. * As of April 20, 2022, these features are available only with NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S lenses.
