It works well but the adapter is priced at $250… which is what I paid for my first 50mm prime lens years ago. An answer to this problem is the FTZ adapter, which facilitates the use of F-mount lenses on the Z system. Switching to the Z-series cameras and therefore an entirely new set of lenses is a big ask.

The Z-mount employs four latches in the lock mechanism instead of the three found on the ubiquitous F-mount.

The new Nikon Z-series cameras use a Z-mount design for mounting lenses. That is, up until the release of the mirrorless Z series. Since Nikon stayed true to its F-mount lens design for decades, almost all Nikon lenses still work natively on systems released since the 60s. When I was starting, having the ability to use vintage 40-year-old primes as I upgraded my digital photo rig was one of the big selling points for Nikon over other brands. My first SLR was a Nikon FM2, released in 1982, and over the years I collected a set of prime lenses that still work on modern Nikon DSLRs. I must begin by coming clean: I have a soft spot for Nikon cameras. Image Stabilization: Sensor-Shift, 5-Axisĭisplay: 3.2-inch tilting touchscreen LCD Storage Media: Dual slot SD/SDHC/SDXC (UHS-II)
