So we currently have v1.40 firmware for the Z6ii, the Z6 is on version 3.4 and the Z9 is now on 2.1!

Has ANYONE heard of rumours of another update for the Z6ii primarily with the autofocus.  My issue is that when tracking subjects, the tracking box is rather large and does tend to wander around on it's own.  If Nikon could improve this, with both a smaller tracking box AND a stickier box, I'd be absolutely delighted!!!

Oh and incidentally, I know that all of this has been mentioned before but I think sometimes, we as a community need to push a manufacturer to keep coming with the updates.. if we sit here quietly waiting, it's going to be a VERY long wait as they will see us as content and therefore not in need of these updates.  The more we push, keep asking the question and drive them a little bit nuts, the more likely that a good update will arrive, not like 1.4 which is decidedly poor as updates go.

What is the current upgrade version for the Z7?  How do I upgrade to the latest versions?
