Highly reliable sources told me Tamron will soon announce these two new F-mount lenses:
35-150 f/2.8-4 VC USD
SP 35mm f/1.4 USD designed to be the best 35 ever.
They are both compatible with the Nikon Z cameras straight from the start (of course with adapter).

This is the new Techart Sony E-mount adapter for NIkon Z cameras
Someone on Weibo shared these early images of a new techart autofocus adapter prototype. this super thin adapter allows the use of Sony E-mount lenses on Nikon Z camera with full aperture and autofocus control. DOn’t expect it to work it as good as on native Sony cameras tough.

The Nikon Z Series: Upcoming Firmware on Display
The Nikon Z series will continue to adapt to changing user needs through the development and roll-out of firmware updates to meet and exceed creative expectations. Taking into account feedback from photographers and creators, Nikon will display three feature updates under development that open creative opportunities for the Z 6 and Z 7. Displays will include:
- CFexpress – Coming soon to the Z 6 and Z 7 cameras is support for CFexpress, which is compatible with the XQD memory card form-factor.
- Eye AF – Under development is an Eye AF function, which will automatically detect the subject’s eyes to make attaining critical focus on the eyes easier. It will allow users to capture photos in which focus has been clearly acquired on the subject’s eye, which is useful for portrait, event and street photography scenarios.
- RAW Video Support – Nikon is currently developing a feature that works with the ATOMOS Ninja V to output video in RAW format, using the ProRes RAW codec.
Details, including the release date of new firmware updates, will be shared at a later date.
