Euh... I don’t have anything more than you do.
We as photographers have one more option to investigate.
I am surprised by the defensiveness I see in this thread at the idea that Nikon may have come up with a superior mirrorless platform.
It is only natural that a solution designed 6-7 years later benefits from past learnings. Canon has the opportunity to do the sane btw.

Bernard, I enjoy your photos (when you posted them) and your civilized discussions, always interesting. I am not being defensive in any way, as in the past I have used Canon, Nikon and Sony. What I point out is that in spite of what other people have said (which you may believe or not), and some links that have been posted, you choose "not to see". I detail my ideas below:
- Assuming the new Z mount is larger than the F mount, to me it shows that the latter is compromised for FF MILC systems. By making it large, it seems to be able to cater for say f/0.95 lenses with excellent optical quality.
- When Canon introduced the EF-M mount, they did so with a size that will cater for FF in the future.
- When Nikon introduced the E mount, they did so with a size to cater for FF in the future.
- I can't see how the E mount is compromised in any way for FF. Do you see it compromised because no f/0.95 lenses have been made? We now have for example native FF 15 f/2.0 lenses that are very good. We have 40 f/1.2 lenses that are very good. I suppose that Sony, Zeiss, Voigtlander would have the expertise to produce f/0.95 lenses, but they are not a priority in any system.
- I see the EF-M mount not being compromised in any way, as for Sony's E mount.
