Apple page lists mysterious Nikon Z70: Could this be Nikon’s rumored APS-C flagship?
An Apple ProRes RAW compatibility list featured a Nikon Z70 and was promptly removed. Could this be the fabled mirrorless successor to the Nikon D500?
A mysterious Nikon Z70 camera model was unexpectedly listed on an Apple page, sparking speculation about the possibility of Nikon's rumored APS-C flagship. The list included Z6 III, Z70, Z8, Z9, and ZR cameras, with the Z70 model raising eyebrows as it didn't exist in Nikon's known line-up. After the error was corrected, Nikon fans were left pondering whether it was simply a typo or an indication of an unreleased device.
The timing of this revelation is particularly intriguing, as Nikon has been relatively quiet in 2026, with limited camera releases and announcements. The Z70's potential launch could come as a welcome addition to Nikon's portfolio, especially considering its positioning as a spiritual successor to the popular Nikon D500. Rumors hint at a high-end crop-sensor camera that could cater to the enthusiast-to-pro market, featuring a 26MP sensor, in-body image stabilization (IBIS), dual card slots, and top-of-the-line autofocus and burst speeds.
The inclusion of high-end video capabilities, such as internal ProRes RAW, would further enhance its appeal. If Nikon does indeed introduce a Nikon Z70, it would be a significant development, potentially ushering in a new flagship APS-C mirrorless camera.
