Why this lens instead of a Nikon lens? How does this work and does it actually work reliably? There must be drawbacks right, you can’t just use another brands lens on a camera… Can you? I had all of these questions myself and couldn’t really find great answers online, thus I’ve spent the last 4 months living with this setup to test the auto focus, functionality, and discover all the quirks and features of mashing two brand’s together into what I think is an ultimate setup. The results? Well they were better than I expected and the best part was discovering what this means for the future of Nikon’s Z Mount.
