You think, the D6 would get IBIS? I don't.

I do

Seriously: they have the technology, so why NOT use it in their top DSLR?

Because I think professionals either need high shutter speeds or a reliably still standing sensor. They are much better off with a sensor that can go up 2 f-stops more than the others than an IBIS system which still comes at the cost of object motion blurr.

So far, the Zs are not able to detect themselves mounted on a tripod. Also, on long lenses the sensor movement doesn't help as much as optical stabilization by the lens.

We will see soon enough which way Nikon already decided to go. Let's not forget that Sony's ɑ9 II has a more versatile AF system with bigger coverage, less blackout and meanwhile rather good lenses.

New lenses, new cameras, all nice, but not exactly exciting, while the prices are at the high side.
