Does the autofocus still work on f lenses if a teleconverter is used? If so does it work as normal or slower focusing?

Yes, and TY. I will be waiting on the Z8/9 purchase but I am trying to be better educated for when I DO eventually pull the trigger.Do you mean using a tele with the FTZ adapter? No problem......
In fact, F mount lenses+ F mount TCs work even better with the Z cameras than they do on DSLRs.Does the autofocus still work on f lenses if a teleconverter is used? If so does it work as normal or slower focusing?
I did some testing with Z9/500PF/f-mount 1.4x TC. It worked great. Fast, accurate AF and IQ at least as good as with D850. Yes IMO the f-mount 2xTC was a waste of money. Only time it was ever useful was on a 300mm f2.8. And then it significantly degraded IQ.If I get a z8/9 I will be using my 500mm PF on it and the sigma 150-600 on the D500.
Was hoping to use the f mount 1.4 teleconverter with it. The 2.0 I have was a waste of funds.
ML AF works with lens combinations with a combined aperture much slower than the common f8 minimum aperture on Nikon high end DSLR's.Does the autofocus still work on f lenses if a teleconverter is used? If so does it work as normal or slower focusing?
