A couple of points

1. Your two scenarios are probably the same financially in terms of the bodies. Have you factored in lenses - are you planning to use your existing f mount glass on whichever Z camera you get?

2. If you intend to get new Z glass in both scenarios, having recently switched from a D850 which I intended to keep, I can tell you that you would be unlikely to continue use the D810 so my advice would be trade it while it still has some value and get the Z8. That way it doesn't matter whether you need to do video or stills at any given moment, you have the right camera in your hand *

*not that the Z6iii isn't a great stills camera, I'm sure.
