Competition news: Nikon announced the new Z6III…Sony to hasten the release of the new Sony A7V?

Nikon announced the new Z6III (specs and preorders at BHphoto , Amazon , Adorama , FotoErhardt , WexUK ). The one curious new feature is that it features the world’s first “partially stacked CMOS sensor”. PetaPixel writes:

While highly performant, a fully stacked image sensor is also costly. Nikon says a partially stacked design offers some of the benefits of a stacked sensor without all the expense. These benefits include faster autofocus performance, reduced rolling shutter, a smoother electronic viewfinder experience, swifter shooting speeds, and expanded video modes with higher frame rates.

This camera aims to compete with the Sony A7IV. A specification comparison table is available on the BHphoto page (Click here) . I beliebe the Z6II edges the Sony in the video features. The Z6III is only the second mid-range camera to feature internal RAW recording (first was the Lumix GH7 announced last week). Below I will post the review from Chris Niccols and Gerald Undone. But here comes the big question:

Do you think the Nikon Z6III is so darn good that it will force Sony to hasten the release of the new Sony A7V?
