Fons, I like the rendition you get out of that combo.

 John, warming smiles and relax body language. That lens on the Z9 sounds like a wonderful pair. Is it?

Thanks Paco,  yes that lens works great on the Z 9 combining the excellent image quality with the spot on and fast autofocus.

As noticed before with the Z6 and Z7, the AF-S lenses perform better than on the F-mount, image quality is equal, or even better (with the FTZ), and the auto-focus is much better.

Personally I like the F mount lenses over the Z mount ones,  they are too clinical, and too well corrected. Perhaps very sharp but also very standard picture book-images...

Nice Fons.  Great nature area not?  It's one of my 'home' nature resorts.

Swapped the  85/1.4 AF-D  for the AF-S version.  Impressive improvement over the older version. Works perfectly on the Z9.
