Hybrid body design between the ℤ6 and ℤ8 (bigger than the current ℤ6/7 but smaller than the ℤ8) –see this post
The playback button is in the same place as ℤ8 (bottom right), as opposed to ℤ6II, which is on the top left side of the camera
Camera body size and overall dimension are similar to the Nikon ℤ6II: 3-5mm longer width becuase of the LCD hinge and a few mm thicker
The overall height (bottom to the EVF) remains the same but the actual camera is 2-3mm taller
The grip button layouts and design look similar to the Nikon ℤ8apart from the command dial which is the same as the ℤ6II
All other button layouts are the same as the ℤ6II
The ℤ6III logo is on the top, just like on the ℤ8/ℤ9
ℤ logo in the front is also like the ℤ8 but below the current ℤ6II focus sensor
The ℤ6III body overall is about 30-40g heavier than the Z6II
The ℤ6III body inherits the design from the ℤ8 –this is why a few months ago I reported it as a mini-ℤ8(theNikonℤ6III is a mini ℤ8, theNikonℤ8 was a mini ℤ9)
