About this deal
The more streamlined design makes it possible to exchange between NIKKOR Z and F lenses while the camera is kept mounted on a tripod. Did it cost more, possibly, but there were many consumer EF USM lenes (non L professional) out by the very early 1990s, so you can't say cost was that big of an issue. Check the camera firmware and update to the latest version if the “C” firmware version is earlier than 3.
they slow things down, make focus slower, consum more energy and sometimes put another layer of glass, lowing light and general quality.Support isn't universal, but Nikon claims that around 360 F-mount lenses can be mounted, of which 90 retain full AF, AE and VR (where applicable) compatibility.
It's just a total waste to use a great focusing camera like an a9II or a1 with those lenses if you hope to get consistent results on moving subjects. My point is that I'm damned sure that the FTZ II did not require a tremendous engineering and design effort to pull off.Macro is a full-frame L-mount lens that's designed to be a medium telephoto, portrait and macro lens all-in-one. The Mount Adapter FTZ II works with approximately 360 F-mount lenses, over 90 of which retain full functionality. Reproduction in whole or part in any form or medium without specific written permission is prohibited. What I know for a fact is that I have not found a single pre AF-S lens that was able to track well even on the best focusing DSLR ever, the D6.
