I received several confirmations that the rumored Nikon retro-inspired APS-C mirrorless Z camera is real and will be announced soon. Here is a recap of the latest rumors: Model name: Zfc (or ZFC or Z-Fc) – not sure what the Zfc stands for – “F Classic” maybe? The Zfc will be basically an APS-C-based Z-mount version of the Df camera (maybe it will just be called Nikon Zf – it makes more sense to me). In previous blog posts, I have referred to this camera as the Z30. Nikon Z-mount APS-C mirrorless camera. The technical specifications will be very close to the Nikon Z50. Very thin camera body without a handgrip. Nikon Df-inspired design with mechanical dials and articulating screen (“selfie screen”). Shape and handling similar to old Nikon FM cameras. Three different colors are rumored: silver, black, and brown (leather?) Price with kit lens: $999. The new APS-C mirrorless lenses for Z-mount could be named “SE”: 28mm f/2.8 and/or 35mm f/1.8 (kit lens). The new DX lenses will not look retro and will have the familiar Nikkor Z design. Official announcement expected on June 28 (as previously reported: announcement expected in the first half of 2021). The other date I heard is July 31 – I think this is the actual shipping date. Here are a few mockups of the rumored Nikon Zfc Z-mount APS-C mirrorless camera based on the already leaked image: If you have any additional information, you can contact me anonymously here.
