Indeed, an interesting take on the third-party 2x macro lenses arriving the last years.

Unfortunately it follows the current "trend" of not having a tripod collar.

The third-party designer is clever to use the added rear space required for mirrorless cameras to push in a tilt/shift section.

I doubt we'll see a similar Nikkor in the nearest future, though. The F-mount tilt/shift lenses can do service on the Z bodies as well. in fact, it might even be easier to appreciate the value of the lens movements on the mirrorless camera.

Several recent Chinese brands do 100mm f/2.8 design going from 2X to infinity. I have Laowa which is good, and the Mitakon which isn't.
