I finally got a chance to hold Z7 with 35mm F1.8S in a local store, and I know by now that I really want Z6 with that lens, to dive into the system.
It fills like Nikon, and EVF and LCD are the best I've seen so far.
On plus side, something that nobody mentioned, at least I haven't seen it yet, no issues with polarized glasses, at all, neither horizontally, nor vertically.
I'm glad that I didn't buy A73, I was very close, not being able to see back screen in horizontal position would bother me, big time.
There was too many people there, so I didn't test AF and other things, but as I said, I liked it a lot, and Z system made me to finally get over Fuji X system.
Nikon rep mentioned pin point focus, stating it won't be implemented on Z6, but he wasn't sure.
He said, the reason is the fewer number of phase detection focus points on Z6, but as far as I understood, this feature is based on contrast detection.
I didn't want to argue with him, but I hope he was wrong!
P.S. The shutter sound is so sweet, second best IMO, right after X-H1, something that I never, ever, liked on any Sony A7xxx cameras, at least those I had a chance to play with.
