Me thinks you should have used a blue font for sarcasm. I was hoping hey would use the Z50 body. A full frame sensor in that body would have been perfect for me. May need to take a look anyway.

I was not, actually, being sarcastic. Or sardonic. Or whatever the proper word is.

I don't recall seeing anyone mention an entry-level full-frame Z. Everyone has been abuzz about the idea of a Z8. I guess they decided something comparable to a D610 made more sense right now. Trying to stir up the market for new lenses, too, I would imagine.

Good grief, what horribly choppy phrasing....

I'm surprised you hadn't heard about the Z5. The full specs have been out for a week or two. The speculation for 2 or 3 months. First rumor was it wouldn't have an EVF. Then it was discovered that it would have an EVF but no top screen. The next inline are the Z6s and Z7s. They will be updated with dual card slots and will have attachments for battery grips. I suspect these will be coming before any high end models.
