I have the 50mm 1.8G on the FTZ adapter and it's fine, perhaps even very good. But I've been getting more and more into primes, and since the 50 1.8 S is so well reviewed, I'll probably try to get ...

I had the 16-50mm for going small and light on my Z6, but I didn't love the megapixels I was losing. I've since moved to the 24-50 and it's nearly as small of a package but the advantage is I'm ...

Another remaining question is metal vs plastic mounts. I’ll buy them either way, but I’m hoping for metal.

It was within the poll he posted at his zsystemuser site. See https://www.zsystemuser.com/nikon-z-system-news-and/what-lenses-do-your-really.html and click the link to vote on the roadmap Nikkors. ...

From the silhouettes on the roadmap, it looks like they'll be about the size of the 24-50 when it's collapsed, which is small enough for me. And someone (maybe Thom Hogan) recently speculated that ...

The 28 and 40mm compacts are next. I will own both of them.

If you land on an 85mm prime, I wouldn't overlook the new Viltrox 85mm f/1.8. I've been impressed with mine so far. Granted, I shoot that focal length only occasionally, and if I were focused on ...

Wow, this is an incredible result. Very nicely done.

I’ve been using the 24-50 on the Z6 and have been pretty pleased with the lens, for what it is. For me, the small size and light weight are big pluses, making my camera a nice grab and go option ...

Oh, and even though I decided the DX lenses weren't for me, I did find this pro's opinion to be an interesting and well reasoned take on the matter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPGynC1FoJ0 Mono ...

I had the 16-50 for an occasional compact option and I did love how small and light it was, but I didn't love losing the pixels. It's entirely usable and doable, but I think the lens would be much ...

I've always leaned toward 35, 50, 85, but I'm realizing that on F-mount I had a 50 simply because it was inexpensive and small. So now I'm mostly a 35 and 85 shooter, but I'm considering moving to ...

Which is interesting, because when I was on F mount the Nikon F/1.8 primes were pretty small and light, and relatively inexpensive, whereas the Sigma primes were huge, heavy and pricier. Granted, ...

Oh, and they're starting to show up on eBay for in the low $300s (vs the $399 retail price) if that helps.

It's a pretty nice little lens. I have the 24-70mm f/4 and love it, but I wanted a smaller and lighter alternative for hiking and for just walking around downtown less conspicuously. I did first ...

I think the 28 and 40mm lenses will be the next releases, and I envision I'll get them both. For me, the interim solution has been the 24-50, which I've actually been pretty pleased with. It ...

I think the compact primes will be next, followed by the 24-105. I also believe we may see the announcement of a 70-300 priced and aimed at a wider audience than the existing 70-200 f/2.8.

I have a lot of respect for that site and their reviews, and that certainly had an influence in my purchase. And beyond the reviews, they have such a broad range of info and tutorials about all ...

I love mine. I was initially put off by how big it appeared to be, but once in hand it's a smaller than I imagined, plus it's not terribly heavy. More importantly, it's just a nice and sharp lens ...

The native 85mm 1.8 S is a no brainer. If you want to save $400, then consider the new Viltrox 85mm 1.8. I ordered the Viltrox because I don't use an 85mm very often and the reviews for the Sony ...
