The Nikon FTZ II is an adapter that allows to mount Nikon F-mount lenses on Nikon Z mirrorless cameras. With Nikon AF-S, AF-I and AF-P lenses all automatic controls works even with the adapter, included autofocus and image stabilization. Lenses without build-in AF motor works only in manual focus. The in-camera image stabilization can be used with any lens.
In comparision with the previous version, the FTZ II is smaller and lighter. It is in production since 2021; the current price is 219 €.

The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Pros:Maintains the speed obtained on Reflex (at least on my D7100), allows you to mount many lenses
Cons:Many lenses, but not all, or at least not all with all the features
Opinion:For what I tried this adapter works very well on my z50. The lenses with which I tried it are the sigma 17-50 f 2.8, sigma 50-150 f2.8 OS HSM, samyang 24mm f 1.4 mf, nikon 35mm dx f 1.8, tokina 11-16 dx f 2.8. It works perfectly on all lenses except for a few things: - The tokina does not autofocus for the simple fact that the adapter does not have the AF motor like the camera body of the D7100 and therefore cannot operate the screw that activates the AF on the lens. - The Samyang cannot be used through the lens aperture ring but only using that of the camera body, which on the D7100 was possible due to the fact that there was a mechanism that communicated mechanically to identify the aperture chosen by hand by the lens. For the rest all the lenses work at the same speed of AF that they had on the D7100 and indeed, they are even better because the focus is more precise P.S. I also tried the sigma 120-400 4.5 - 5.6 but unfortunately I have already struggled to make it work on the D7100 as it requires a firmware on the machine well dated, therefore on the z50 works only in manual focus unfortunately However summing up I would say that it is a fundamental tool for those who come from Nikon SLR like me, I also recommend it instead of the FTZ first version because after several doubts in the end I found the shape of the new version more functional
Cons:It does not have a slot to mount internal filters. It does not have a foot to put an attachment for a photographic head.
Opinion:It is simply an extension cord that maintains electrical contacts between the optics and mirrorless, the price is too high. About the attachment to the photographic head: they could have drawn it according to the thickness of the Z9 instead of removing it. Despite having these flaws it is indispensable to use the old optics on the Z system. Rating 5/10 because the "cons" I have listed for me are important
