I believe the other mockup I posted online is a much more accurate reproduction of the upcoming Z6 III:
Now, how about those specs coming from China? You can see that they are clearly a copy of what I have been reporting online for months now – here are all the rumored Nikon Z6 III camera specifications I have posted so far:
Nikon Z6 III rumors from [NR] sources

- Hybrid body design between the Z6 and Z8 (bigger than the current Z6/7 but smaller than the Z8) – see this post
- Camera body size and overall dimension are similar to the Nikon Z6II: 3-5mm longer width becuase of the LCD hinge and a few mm thicker
- The overall height (bottom to the EVF) remains the same but the actual camera is 2-3mm taller
- The grip button layouts and design look similar to the Nikon Z8 apart from the command dial which is the same as the Z6II
- All other button layouts are the same as the Z6II
- The Z6III logo is on the top, just like on the Z8/Z9
- Z logo in the front is also like the Z8 but below the current Z6II focus sensor
- The Z6III body overall is about 30-40g heavier than the Z6II
- The Z6III body inherits the design from the Z8 – this is why a few months ago I reported it as a mini-Z8 (the Nikon Z6III is a mini Z8, the Nikon Z8 was a mini Z9)
- Better ergonomics compared to the Z6
- Battery EN-EL15
- A few other features from Z8 and Zf are also coming to Z6III but I do not have the details yet
- Nikon MB-N14 battery pack
- Nikon Z6III expected in early 2024 (in Q1, between January and April)

Nikon Z6 III rumors from a reader
- Nikon Z6 III price: $2,999 launch price
- New Fast Stacked sensor specialized for low light and high dynamic range video.
- 6k 60p no crop full readout
- 4k 120p no crop full readout
- 4k 24/30/60 over-sampled from 6k
- Full HD 180-240p no crop
- Great Dynamic Range
- Great Low Light similar to A7S III at 12,800.
- Sony like auto-focus – better than Z8 with less AF points
- Better IBIS especially in video – Panasonic S5IIx like
- New cooling design 50% chance to have fan a like Panasonic
- Larger body than Z6 by 10-15%
So, the conclusion is: don’t believe everything you read online. Here is another example: the Leica D-Lux 8 camera will never have an APS-C sensor with a fixed prime lens.
Do you remember the recent Nikon Zh rumors? They disappeared faster than they appeared online… all the blog posts, YouTube videos, social media posts – all gone. Only the clicks are left which is all that matters for some websites.
