I would definitely be waiting until the production versions are out in the wild and real experts like Birna can get to grips with the actual cameras in a real world environment.
These self appointed 'experts' have very limited credentials and little real background experience, they just want to ponce about on Utube and they think every body considers them to be god because they have held a pre production Z body.
.
I think that's a little unfair, Robert.
Whilst there are some people just in it for self aggrandisement there must be some who give the product a good honest shakedown?
And anyway, I don't need an expert detail analysis...I just need it to meet my requirements, which are fairly simplistic....
1) Does this body feel right in the hand?
2) Does the viewfinder clear fast enough to maintain continuous eye contact with the subject, without NEEDING extra batteries and AFC?
3) Does the sensor deliver sharp images with low noise even at (sensible) high ISO level comparable with equivalent DSLRs?
4) Is the opening lens range good enough quality to avoid having to use existing lenses.... which would counter the lower weight advantage.
I have conceded that the battery on a mirrorless will never approach a DSLR image capacity. The ability to use my collection of existing Nikon batteries and a single charger would have to suffice.
