The main thing that is stopping me from switching to Nikon is the lens… the good telephoto prime like 135mm plena is much more expensive than say Sony 135mm gm. You can also get things like 85mm dg dn which is even cheaper.
There also isn’t any 35mm f1.4 or 24mm f1.4… the money I save on getting the z8 does not help if I spend so much more on lens.
Having owned both, the Plena is really a significantly better lens than the Sony GM IMHO. The Sony is very sharp but delivers flat images lacking contrast, bokeh is also not that great.
Nikon is expected to come up with a 35mm f1.2 any time soon.

I owned the 135mm gm and I agree on the bokeh. Contrast is there but the bokeh is not that smooth but I am nitpicking. Nikon has nothing at the price point of the 135mm gm. it is either super expensive or the f1.8 primes...
I think there is a big market for slightly cheaper and good f1.4 primes
