I am continuing to update my list of rumored/expected details for the new Nikon mirrorless camera. Here is the new info:
- Nikon is rumored to target the Sony A7 III with their new mirrorless camera – if true, this will mean they will use a sensor in the 24MP range and a target price around $2,000 – that makes sense because Nikon already has an excellent high MP camera – the D850.
- The new Nikon mirrorless camera will have features/functions never introduced beforehand (not sure if this applies to Nikon, to mirrorless cameras or to the industry as general). The camera was designed with ergonomics in mind.
- At least one new mirrorless zoom lens will have power zoom (for video recording).
- Nikon Japan should soon start sharing information with the parties involved in one month and we should start getting more detailed specifications soon.

The official announcement of the new Nikon mirrorless camera is rumored to be shortly before Photokina while shipping is expected to start a month after Photokina (there were already multiple reports for an announcement in the second half of 2018, see this and this post).
