This bit excites me more. "Nikon Z6 and Nikon Z7 have exactly the same body and use the same battery." I hope the battery is the EN-EL15. If it is then I am very happy to have a Z6 and Z7 and get rid of all my older non IR cameras e.g. D3S, D90, D700.

I can't see Nikon missing the opportunity to make a completely new battery, maybe advanced. Rectangular cells? Cylindrical cells waste a lot of space in an rectangular housing. Having broken the lens mount continuity why worry about breaking the battery continuity?

Single component sourcing is important in manufacturing cost management. Using the same battery and charger would mean two less sets of tests and compliance ratings. Also looking at the teasers and extracted photos. The camera body is too slim for the battery to fit anywhere other than in the handgrip so this allows a curved shape for the battery to have cylindrical cells more easily but there is no reason why not a squared edged battery. Battery size is limited so it is not possible to fit an EN-EH18. I take your point though. ![]()

Apparently this is the back of the camera - according to NikonRumurs. Attachment: C333EFD5-CF1D-440A-9AB7-4851274EB185.jpeg (Downloaded 14 times)

I would really like to see the baseplate and top plate.

If the display buttons were on the left this wouldn't be the case. Additionally, as shown in the image, the screen being close to the left edge of the body is vulnerable to impacts that wouldn't be any risk on a DSLR.
