Starting to wonder if it's time to update my gear. D500 hold out here. Does Z6iii fit? What I keep wondering about is whether 24mpx is enough. Shall I wait for a z7iii or not, is it worth it.
What are you doing with your photos? 24MP is more than enough for almost any format, except maybe the largest of prints. But you’d need to get good framing in camera, without as much room to crop.
All indications are that Nikon won’t be making a Z7iii, so if you want more pixels I’d go Z8. They’re on sale for $500 off right now. Also if you run DX glass, or set to crop mode, you’ll get 20MP files, so fairly close to your d500 right now.
I (almost) never print, the advantage of the extra pixels would be the ability to crop significantly and still end with usable shots. Once I go full frame the plan would be to sell the old kit. A couple of my lenses indeed come from the d7000 days! The 50mm/1.8 IIRC.
