Above, we have some new information about the Z6III, and it looks like it will be a high-performance machine with improvements in all areas, including video mode, continuous recording time, continuous shooting speed, EVF resolution, and AF performance. It has been stated that the Z6III will be the best camera in its class, and it certainly looks like it will be a fairly high-spec model for the mid-range.
However, one thing that concerns me is the price, 3,000 euros (the Zf is 2,550 euros on Amazon Germany), which is a bit high for a mid-range device. Btw., lets wait and see what happend next, if we get any new information we will post an update.
