[QUOTE="desmobob, post: 790866, member: 45742"] As shown with the Z-mount lenses already tested and in use, there is a lot more to gain than a couple of ounces. And Nikon already released the "pro" version Z-mount 70-200mm f/2.8 S late in 2020... what I'm hoping for is a less expensive 70-200 or 70-300 f/4. My "non-pro" Z-mount 24-70mm f/4 S outperforms the "pro" F-mount 24-70 f/2.8 except in low-light capability. My "non-pro" Z-mount 50mm f/1.8 S outperforms any of the previous F-mount 50mms by a good bit. (I have a sort of standard lens "collection" of eight different Nikkor F-mount 50mms.) And the pro versions of these lenses, the Z-mount 24-70 f/2.8 S and 50m f/1.2 S, have set new standards for lens performance. I still enjoy and value my F-mount Nikkors and my Nikon SLR and DSLR bodies, but the Z system is incredible and I will certainly build a basic lens outfit for it. I have the 24-70/4, the 40/2 and the 50/1.8 so far. All are superior to my F-mount lenses. [/QUOTE]
