It has inherited the Zf/Z6 II sensor and apparently many Zf features.

Could be a good future candidate as a complemental body or full spectrum conversion second hand or discounted, perhaps with a clip in filter system?

Yes, a tempting idea.

I recall that Birna has such a modified Z5 in "Mk 1" form.

I still wait and see if the next DX release will be with a new IBIS high resolution DX-sensor.
I like the smaller size and higher pixel density and also lower price level.
If not this camera could be for me......

Is it MF lenses friendly?
