This announcement raises several questions.
What I find puzzling is why the lenses are to be only offered in
Nikon F mount, a trial balloon perhaps?
Nikon was the easiest one to do, so it makes sense to do it first.
The Nikon diaphragm linkage is completely mechanical.
As a gesture to its supporters, Z should, at the very least, also
make these lenses available in the C/Y mount, particularly if they
are updated designs.
That would also be easy to do. But there are probably several
thousand Nikons in use for every C/Y camera.
Wonder if the much sought after 21 Distagon will be offered in
Nikon F or other mounts?
I hope so.
