I am happy to be one of the first subscribers to congratulate you on this amazing feat. I think it was about two years ago I first found your channel, the episode was how important the Z mount will be. Yours is a channel where people are encouraged to put their "brand" differences aside and just enjoy photography. That is a theme to which you have adhered in each and every episode. And you accomplished this while also being a beacon to the Nikon community. Not to mention your video content of late is top shelf! Well deserved Matt. take care. Ted in Sebastian, Florida

Congratulations Matt and well done. Loved the review, some crazy add ons. I'm a bit of a Nikon kid myself and have 9 35mm Nikon film cameras ranging from an old S2 to an FA and F4. On the digital side a D850 (waiting for one of the fabled Z8s) and a Zfc. I just so love the Zfc styling and recently purchased one the new Voigtlander 35m 1.2 Nokton Z mount lens for a cropped sensor. This lens has all the beautiful styling of some of my 35mm manual focus lens and looks so COOL on the Zfc. Thought you might have included one their range in your review.

Later when Nikon makes the Z 12-24 DX lens. The 18-140 would also work nicely, but it’s not as good as the 24-200. The Viltrox 33 is another one that might work too.

Well done Matt and a very interesting video. Since you are working with a broad range of third party lenses sometime I would love to see your reaction to the Pergear 10 mm f/8 fisheye. It's fixed aperture manual focus with a 150 (rather than the 180 of a "true fisheye") but incredibly cheap and a whole lot of fun for the price.

I only want VR lenses for my Z30 and to keep them small. Nikon need more pancake type wide APS-C lenses with VR built in. Luckily the kit lens is good.

Did you hear Nikon released new firmware for the 10 year old D7100, fixed a live view issue and allegedly added the 4K 60P video.

To compete with say an iPhone 12 Pro with regards Vlogging they need to make a DX 10-35 2.8 lens with the best in class VR

Hello Matt, I have been following your contents regularly. I have a Nikon Z30. Recently I bought a 7ARTISANS PHOTOELECTRIC 12MM F/2.8 MARK II LENS FOR NIKON Z. The manual lens is working fine but unfortunately I am unable to load Non CPU lens data on my Nikon Z30 camera settings. It does let me set the highest aperture to 2.8 but Lens focal length does not give any option to select 12mm. Nikon only has options for 8mm or 13mm. What to do? I will be glad if you can give any possible solution to fix it.

Good and interesting video Matt, but I would always prefer lenses made specifically for a camera mount and not a solution with an adapter, because it is always an extra step to do when changing lenses, and I expect most do photographers feel that way?

This is a video about potential, a video about 'why to do', as apposed to 'why not to do'. Sometimes we move fast, sometimes slow, sometimes some interesting adapted lens might just be the ticket. I often hear of cinematographers looking for old lenses due to their character, if you look up the cinematographer of 'The Joker' it was all about mounting old lenses including Nikon glass on their cine cameras. There are so many applications we don't think of every day :)
