Title: Full-frame Nikon Zf retro camera or Z6 III update coming as soon as September with a firmly midrange price tag
Post by: Redaktion on July 28, 2023, 22:20:34
Recent Nikon certification documentation indicates that the Japanese camera maker plans to release one more camera before the end of 2023. This time, it appears to be a retro-styled full-frame mirrorless body or an update to its popular Z6 II. Although specifications are as yet unknown, the rumoured price of between US$2,000 and US$2,500 is tantalising.

As a Z7II owner a full frame retro styled camera with dials and essentially an upgraded Z7II would be awesome, the issue is Nikon doesn't really have lenses with aperture rings no?

I use a retro style Fuji X series body and would than welcome a Nikon retro style camera as it would likely improve upon the Fujifilm's shortcomings - low light IQ and AF.

Fuji have the prime lenses with aperture rings that pretty much compliment their cameras perfectly.  I doubt Nikon will release lenses with aperture rings and the Z lenses won't really pair up well with a retro style body, which is the only real negative.
