[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 780096, member: 48483"] A couple of more notes that I forgot to put in the original post. 1. Do not use aftermarket EN-EL15 batteries. The camera will detect that, display it's disapproval in a message on screen, then refuse to take photos. Using older EN-EL15a batteries by Nikon is fine, just less power available. I have a mix of spares so will reserve the 2000mAH aftermarket batteries for my D600 infrared and D750. 2. Out of box, the FTZ-II adapter will not work on the Z5. Gives a disapproving message on screen about using the right lenses. The Z5 firmware must be updated to fix that. 3. The flash setup menu will allow manual power setting of a SB-400, a model that has no controls or display of it's own. First camera body I have used that will do that. Doubt it will ever be used by me though. [/QUOTE]
