20 cze 2021 · I just picked up a z5 and the 50mm 1.8 s. I have the latest firmware. When I shoot with continuous auto focus with burst mode, or even single shot, I have a really poor keeper rate. I have af-c set to focus priority and it still seems like only about half my photos are in focus. Even tested it with a stationary subject.
Z mount lenses are quieter which is good for video. F mount lenses were meant for snapping into focus and not for continuously focusing. The noise from the lens will get picked up by the on-camera mic (or some hot-shoe mounted lenses).
Randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, lines or unexpected colors may appear if you press the X button to zoom in on the view through the lens during shooting. Note that the distribution of noise in the display may differ from that in the final picture.
13 cze 2021 · Please note that I am on FW version 1.10, which seems to be the latest on Nikon's website as of today. On the Z 5, I have tried the Z DX 16-50 and a 35 1.8G w/ FTZ adapter. With any of these lenses, I experience pretty unusable AF-C performance (sometimes even in very bright conditions).
A slower-to-focus lens on the DSLR (e.g. 200-500mm f/5.6) is still going to be slower-to-focus on a Z5. A fast-to-focus lens on the DSLR (e.g. 400mm f/2.8) is still fast on the Z5. Some lenses, such as the bargain 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6E AF-P are astonishing good on the Z5+FTZ combo (and make for a compact telephoto option).
Problem is if you start from scratch the FTZ + F mount lens is almost as much as the native Z lens. Tamron has a 70-300 that will be on the market soon. As mention the AF-P is also a fantastic lens.
23 sie 2018 · The new Z-mount may be the big story for Nikon's new Z6 and Z7 cameras, but there's over 100 million F-mount Nikkor lenses floating around the world. Nikon's FTZ Adapter gives those old lenses a new lease on life, and we've had the chance to give it a go and see how it performs.
