Have you verified yet that this plate will or can be made to fit the Z6 III ?
Asked by: Ron
There is a difference between (a slight difference) between this Plate PZ-186 and the PZ190... I purchased the PZ186 due to arrive in a few days for my Nikon Z6III according to the reviews here it's stated it will fit...but...there is a slight difference the PZ-190 has a slightly different shape that will better conform to the Z6III ...there's a small bulge where the plate meets the camera and the QR is on the other side of the mounting screw. Apparently the Z 6III has a slight bulge where the Z6, Z6II Z7 Z7II and the Z50 don't have it...so yes it will fit it just that the PZ-190 has it's own shape peculiar to the Z 6III

This looks like it will fit the Z6iii as the bottom holes seem similar to my Z5. Can you confirm that?
Asked by: Michael
Yes, the hole configuration on the Nikon Z6iii is very similar to the Nikon Z5, so the Kirk PZ-186 Camera Plate for Nikon Z 7II, Z 6II, Z 7, Z 6, and Z 5 will probably work with the Z6iii, but we cannot confirm it 100% as we have not been able to test it yet.
