Agree that Nikon have caught up Sony in the functionality in the camera.
I have always preferred Nikon to Canon but that was just ergonomics in the DSLR.  I think that no matter what make of camera they can all perfom well so it is more about how the camera feels in your hands.

Hope you like the Z8.  

I love my Zf but find my Z9 heavy but very functional. Currently holding out for Nikon to release the Z7iii as that seems to be a natural replacement for my Z7. 
Z8 seems much larger than the Z7 but since there are no camera shops nearby temptation is reduced!

I thought of a Z9 but didn't want to go that big again and as the Z8 is in essence a cut down Z9 I think that will be fine.
Chris, I have ordered a FTZii as well as I still have a 70-200 2.8 vr, a1.4tc and old 28-200 that was very sharp on my DSLRs. I still have an old D300s that has been to the moon and back as far as shutter count but still takes good pictures. It earned me good money in the old days so Its sentimental value.
