Hi,
I am a serious amateur mostly into Bird, Wildlife and Landscape Photography invested heavily into Nikon DSLR bodies and F mount lenses. I currently use Nikon D4s and Nikon D500 bodies with a range of F mount lenses including Nikkor AFS 600 mm f 4 E FL ED VR lens, Nikon AFS 300 mm f 2.8 ED VR lens, Nikon AFS 200-400 f4 VR lens, Nikon AFS 70-200 mm f 2.8 E FL ED VR lens etc.
I am toying with the idea of buying a Nikon Z8 mirrorless body basically for its Bird Eye and Animal AF.
My question is whether the Nikon Z8 which uses the small EN EL 15C battery can provide quick and accurate AF with my current set of F mount lenses especially with fast and accurate Bird Eye AF.
I have no immediate plans to get into the Mirrorless lens system as I can't afford them.
Can anyone who has actual experience with F mount lenses listed above mounted on the Nikon Z8 body via a FTZ II Adapter share their experiences? Thanks in advance.
