Does the FTZ adapter not deal with that - I can't see Nikon revising old designs to work with the new cameras, surely that is the job of the new Z lenses?
The FTZ adapter doesnt work too well with the AFD and AF lenses as there are functions missing compared to the AFS and Z mount S line lenses.
Nikon say the newer lenses are better.  I dont test in a lab but I dont see any big differences that forces me to change/upgrade to new versions.   The new S line  100-400mm for the Z mount cameras is a temptation for me if I stay with Nikon into the future and I would like to refresh the 70-200mm f2.8 with the new S line camera.

I have a Z7 that I really like but the Z9 doesnt fill me with joy due to its size but the specification is good.  The rumours of the Z8 are much closer to what I would want.
