    This review is about the mount: Nikon F

    The lens was purchased for the Nikon Z6 with the FTZ Adapter and it works perfectly. As a whole, it balances very well on the camera with the FTZ. Of course, there is no autofocus, but focusing is assisted with Focus Peaking (d10: Peaking Highlights) or by zooming in on the image to make the correct focus more visible.

    The lens is very small, mostly made of metal. It is very discreet. No one will realize that you are shooting with a superzoom lens. On the other hand, the lens hood is as big as the lens, made of metal, and adds unnecessary weight and length. It screws on and sometimes gets stuck and is not easy to remove.

    The lens comes ready with the T-mount to Nikon F mount converter, which is essentially a screw-on ring. For anyone who has a telescope, the functions and connections are essentially the same.

    Manual focusing is not very difficult and can be learned, even without a tripod. The amazing IBIS of the camera helps as well, at least for relatively stable subjects. It is F/8, so it adds another difficulty. For moving subjects, focusing is quite challenging and requires a lot of practice. Perhaps I would have liked the focus ring to be a bit harder and heavier for greater accuracy. It is not easy to make fine adjustments. It is also a bit difficult to locate your subject when all you have is 400mm. In the end, I managed to capture only some airplanes in motion.

    In terms of image quality, it is relatively good, with moderate sharpness, depending on the achieved focus. It also has quite a bit of vignetting (visible in the photo with the airplane). It provides good depth of field, due to the magnification, and I can't say that the bokeh, which is like a ring, bothered me. It's a matter of personal preference, of course. However, all the imperfections can be corrected with good editing.

    The attached photos are as they came out of the camera, without any editing (except for the last one with the airplane, where I did some light editing because I liked it as a photo).

    Another positive aspect is that I bought a 2x Barlow (or 2x Teleconverter in photographic terminology) for 40 Euros, which screws on behind the lens and makes it 800mm. Even with the Barlow, focusing is not very difficult (although for some reason, Focus Peaking doesn't work) and the results are decent.

    So, overall, it is a good lens, although slightly pricey compared to competitors.
