In addition to the Nonikkor 35mm f/1.4 and 24mm f/1.7 lenses ArtraLab also has a Lunaelumen 50mm f/1.1 lens for Nikon Z-mount. The full list of all available ArtraLab lenses can be found here and here.
Next are the details of the ArtraLab Lunaelumen 50mm f/1.1 lens for Nikon Z-mount:
I still do not have a confirmation that a new Nikon Zf 45MP full-frame retro mirrorless camera for $2,000 will be announced tomorrow – this rumor just sounds too good to be true.
The latest tip I received indicates a 24MP sensor, dual memory cards, and an announcement later in August/September.
Usually, the lack of solid leaks and rumors indicated no official announcement anytime soon.
Nikon is also rumored to release a major autofocus firmware update for the Nikon Z6II and Z7II cameras alongside the new Zf.
The Viltrox 75mm f/1.2 APS-C lens for Nikon Z-mount is now officially released and available for pre-order:

Nikon Japan will announce the official release date for the Nikkor Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR lens on August 17th (the previously reported dpreview forum post was wrong).
I was told that the demand for this lens has been very high and the pre-order lists are very long. Yesterday I reported that Nikon Japan already posted a warning on their website: “Due to the large number of orders for the NIKKOR Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR, it may take some time to deliver. So thank you in advance for your understanding.”

The Nikon full-frame mirrorless retro-design camera (Zf?) I have been reporting for a while could be announced as early as next week (on or around August 2nd maybe?). I am still not sure about all the detail and the exact announcement date, but here are the latest rumors (contact me anonymously with tips):
The Z8 is already in stock in most stores, so it makes sense for Nikon to introduce a new camera and keep the revenue stream up after the drop from the Z8.
