A fresh rumor has started that the upcoming Nikon ZF camera may feature a 24-megapixel sensor from the Nikon Z6 Mark II camera and a dual card slot with extensive manual control, as seen in the Nikon DF DSLR camera.
Earlier, we published specs that said one of the prototypes of the camera uses a 45.7-megapixel sensor from the Z7 Mark II camera, as well as a single card slot.
It’s not new; before releasing a camera, companies test several prototypes. In fact, the 45.7-megapixel version is already being tried and tested by someone. But again, as per the rumor, we have a new set of cameras in the production line with a 24-megapixel sensor and dual card slot.
So there is a very clear indication that either the Nikon DF is coming with a 24-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor or maybe a 45.7-megapixel sensor, or we will have a new generation of Z6 Mark III camera very soon, and these two different reports are coming for two different models.
So we have to wait for more confirmed information. As soon as we get any, I will update you very soon.
Yesterday, we reported to you that Nikon is expected to announce a new full-frame mirrorless camera in August or September 2023. Now, we have more confirmation of this, and the rumor mill has recently published an article with the core specs of the upcoming Nikon retro full-frame mirrorless camera, which could be a possible replacement for the Nikon DF and a bigger brother of the Nikon Zfc.
Take a look at the rumored set of specifications for the upcoming Nikon DF mirrorless camera.

Arrival on Aug 2023
TNC Take – Although the announcement date is very close, likely to be in the first week of August, and despite the fact that the announcement date is so close, we do not have any authentic leaked specifications or glimpses of its images. So even though highly trusted sources are saying that the camera may arrive in the first week of August, I am not able to believe them since I am waiting for further confirmation and authentic proof related to the specs and images of the camera. As soon as we get it, I will update you. Stay tuned for more updates.
According to the latest rumors from Chinese websites / userforums – Camera Beta, there is a high possibility that Nikon may announce a new camera on August 2nd, 2023. The camera is believed to be the bigger brother of the Nikon ZFC, a retro-style camera with a full-frame FX format sensor. The price of the camera has even been predicted.
Nikon’s full-frame retro mirrorless camera Zf will be released on August 2nd? ] According to the latest news, Nikon may have an important new product conference on the 2nd of next month (August 2nd), which will bring a full-frame mirrorless camera. Judging from the previous news, the most likely should be It is the retro full-frame micro-single Zf. It is said that the price of the new machine will be around 2000-2500 US dollars, which is about RMB 14,000-18,000.
It’s interesting to see that they think a camera is coming within a week, so we’ll have to wait and see if this information is correct or not. In general, we get a lot of rumored information, leaked specifications, and images of a particular camera one or two weeks before its announcement. However, in the case of the Nikon DF successor or ZFC bigger brother, we do not have any information from credible sources yet.
From the previous Nikon mirrorless announcement patterns we have seen, There is a high probability that Nikon may release a full-frame mirrorless machine in August or September of 2023, but it could be the Nikon Z6 Mark III or something else. Right now, information related to the Nikon DF successor is very limited. We will update you as soon as we get any more information related to the camera.
Now we have confirmation that the Tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 lens is coming out soon. The development announcement was made by Tamron Japan, and the lens will officially arrive at the end of August 2023 or early September 2023.
The lens is said to be Nikon’s first Z-mount zoom lens that features an F2 aperture, and of course, it’s coming from third-party lens maker Tamron.
Undoubtedly, wedding photographers who use Nikon Z-mount system cameras will buy this lens without a doubt since it’s a perfect combination of price and features. Although we do have a 28-70mm f2.0 lens in Canon’s RF mount, unfortunately, the price is too high when compared to third-party rebranded lenses like we have in the Z-mount. That’s why it’s also very important for Canon to reconsider their decision about locking their mount since we are not able to enjoy affordable high-quality third-party lenses released under the RF mount.
