The problem may be has if found with the Nikon f 2xmount adapter for Tamron did not work . I purchased a Tamron to Nikon mount . It for a z7.2 no idea if the z 9 is the same. The list below I put z 9 it should have been z7.2. so we do need to check . The sales shop replaced the Nikon one as a return no fuss . I recommend that the purchase is done via a store for safety

Thanks for the review. I've really liked Viltrox offerings for Nikon Z, but I think VILTROX MISSED THE BUS HERE... If they offered this with a drop in filter option it would sell like hotcakes. Maybe they'll see my commend t and come up with a version II with drop in filters 🙂

The AF motor would for sure make the sale go ballistic. But then Viltrox would need to find a way to make the focus system talk to the motor, and then it gets complicated. Could be why Nikon did not install an AF motor either.

I've got the 135mm F/2 DC as well and this is the main reason I was looking at the Viltrox adapter. I thought the gear drive autofocus motor meant that it could support autofocus on the lens that I mentioned like the D7000 and above cameras. Is that not the case?
@frederikboving
@frederikboving Год назад
This adapter is made for mirror less cameras. So you don't need it to mount an AF lens on a DSLR like the D7000. Mind you that the crop factor will make your 135mm appear to be longer on an aps-c camera like the d7000.
@saurav_varma
@saurav_varma Год назад
@@frederikboving I meant the Z cameras supporting autofocus on gear driven lenses like 135mm F/2 which only D7000 and above support in the modern DSLRs. Because the other FTZ adapters from Nikon don't support autofocus on pre AFS lenses on Nikon Z.

I bought this adapter and it doesnt work with my Nikkor 70-200 f/2.8 vr1 (doesnt autorocus) Btw the FTZ v1 adapter sucks 2, it had already "diead" 2 times with the same lens (after a few weeks it starts to dont recognise the aperture ) with my 50mm it doesnt give my any problems

I have just purchased this adapter and am very happy to say that it works with two Tamron lenses that are listed as being compatible and they worked on my Z9 which isn’t on the list of tested camera bodies. So happy! The lenses are the 15-30 G1 f/2.8 and the 90mm macro SP. I also have a Samyang 135mm f/2 manual focus lens compatible with f mount. I tried this as well with the voltaic adapter and it kind of works but not correctly. Aperture starts at f/5.6 instead of f/2. Is there a way I can contact Viltrox like you have so maybe they could tweak the firmware to include this lens? It would make me so happy as I truly love this lens and would be over the moon if I can use it again.

Hi Stephen, good to hear that the adapter works well! On their homepage, Viltrox gives this e-mail as contact: info@viltrox.com - maybe they would be interested in answering your question? AND I guess that if you tell them that their adapter works with Z9, that would be great news! All the best!

Has anyone noticed that the adapter extends the focal length of the lens? I have the Z30 and D500 , so I tested 3 lenses, nikon 85mm, sigma30mm and tokina 11-16.. all shots with the D500 frm all 3 lenses are noticeably wider than with the Z30+ adapter. Im jst surprised since I hvnt found any videos talking abt this effect frm the adapter, mayb its the same w/ the FTZ .

This is due to the sensor size on the Z30. It's a crop sensor therefore there's a magnifying factor of 1.5x.

If the Viltrox adapter has much less supported lenses (Nikon's adapter supports 90 lenses) and more errors, then it's just a poor and cheap copy of the original. It's also cheaper because Viltrox produces in China, whereas Nikon's is in Japan.
