Interesting and informative.

As I said, physically too small for me, but I think Nikon could have done better with the FTZ adaptor, it doesn't need a tripod socket, which is unusable with the comical grip, a simple tube would have been better and much cheaper all round.
The FTZ needs reworking to allow slow AF to the camera for AF and AFD lenses.
Apparently Nikon just need to put a 'screwdriver motor' into the FTZ and change the F mount flange to one with the screwdriver AF interface. Power comes from the camera battery same as in the older camera bodies!
Camera purchase choices are driven by personal preferences as well as camera specifications so that is fine.
