A screenshot reportedly from a Nikon Singapore newsletter has brought the Nikon Z70 back into focus. Digital Camera World reports that promotional material mentions the Z70 and a Digital Teleconverter. This is a reported leak, not a formal camera announcement.
Where the 1,260mm figure comes from
The reported caption describes 1,260mm-equivalent reach at f/4 with the new 120–300mm lens. Assuming a DX camera, the arithmetic is 300mm × 1.4 × 1.5 × 2 = 1,260mm. The final 2× step is an inference about digital magnification, not a confirmed Z70 specification.
The optical teleconverter changes the maximum aperture to f/4. Digital cropping does not add optical reach or collected light; its usefulness depends on the capture resolution and output requirements.
What remains unknown
The screenshot does not establish a sensor resolution, price or release date. It also cannot confirm how a digital teleconverter would operate. Our earlier November timing report remains a rumor. A formal Nikon announcement is needed before treating the proposed features as specifications.
