16-50Z on FX?

how do the corners look? can I make the Z6 use this in FX mode?

[Birna Rørslett]

Probably not as I think the camera prevents its use in FX mode. It will default to DX. Not seen any option for overruling that.

that's sad 
would have been great since it's so tiny

Indeed unfortunately a modified 10,5mm fisheye with its hood cut also reverts to crop mode with the Z6.

What if you put it on a “dumb” adapter, or tape the contacts?

[Birna Rørslett]

Hard to use an adapter for a Z lens on a Z camera, unless it is an extension ring....

Taping the contacts probably "helps".

this is so sad. a firmware update should fix this

some of us have been waiting a long time for simple FW updates to fix issues, but those updates don't come.

I thought the 10.6 was F mount DX?

Z6 has had more FW updates than Df did in several years. Not saying they are fast, but they are faster.

A good trend.

16-50 is DX in Z mount. Thus it would work to perfection on my Z50, if I were to buy it.

10.5 Fish is DX in  F-mount. If the lens hood is shaved off, it can do pretty well on FX camera (DSLRs) as the image covers > 200 degrees there. With two captures one can even get perfect circular fisheye images.
