Interesting development for Z f. For over a year, I kept hearing Z6 ii in retro bodies. But it seems that
after the success of Z9/Z8, Nikon may have a change of heart. They may try to position Z F as a baby Z8 ie high performance camera but in smaller, less expensive package. Z8 is great but not everyone can afford it nor needs the full capability of Z8 so baby Z8 might make sense, whatever that means.
Anyhow, that's one possiblity but Nikon is not saying too much about it but we may get to hear something more definitive by the end of this month or early next month but not August 2nd for sure.
At least Nikon Thailand VP here posted on his FB saying nothing exciting on August 2nd.
Is this based on knowledge, verified leaked information or just tea leaves?
Do you ask for verification for every spec of Z F mention on this thread so far ?
No. So far just you.
I'll get around to the rest of them . . . Speculation is sometimes a healthy exercise in coming to understand how a company sees its market and future. Often the divergence in what people 'guess' something is going to be gives information on how people perceive a company and how a company perceives itself. That is, wishful thinking can be a sobering exercise. Speculation based on some verifiable information is just more fun. I'm just curious if you have something more substantial than just armchair marketing. No harm meant.
In that case, less than verified leaked information but more than tea leaves. A friend that told me about this certainly has inside knowlege of what is going on in Nikon but things that were discussed internally don't always come through as plans cahnge and product is made depending on designing team, marketing team and lots of other factor. As I said, success of Z8/Z9 may have Nikon rethink some of their strategy and camera body design is rather fluid in Nikon's world so
nothing is set in stone for months or year in advance.
Thanks for that.
