Who would have thought you could put Sony E mount lenses on a Nikon Z? Megadap kindly sent us their brand-new ETZ21 to test out and thanks to a friend of the channel we were able to mount it on a Nikon Zfc with a Sony 18-55mm lens. Watch on to see the results!

I am a Sony user. I have the Sony A7 RIV and I have 11 E-mount lenses (7 primes, 4 zooms ), I use TechPro to adapt M-mount lenses and use another F-mount to M-mount adapter to adapt Nikon manual lenses onto Sony E-mount. E-mount does have a wider selection of lenses than Nikon Z because they allow Samyang, Sigma and Tamron into making E-mount lenses, Sigma has released a lot of very good prime for E and L mount only like their 85mm F1.4, Tamron partly owned by Sony provides the excellent third party zoom lenses like 35-150mm F2-2.8. I like the Z7 series of Nikon cameras and if I do switch it will be something equivalent of Z7. It will be even more interesting if there is a RF->Z adapter or RF->E adapter.

This is very exciting! Z mount = the ‘universal’ mount for mirrorless era?!? As Z mount has the shortest flange distance of the main mirrorless systems at 16mm, the fact a competent adapter has been developed for E system having an 18mm flange is very encouraging for other mounts >~18mm. Assuming the respective technical compatibility / connectivity / communication issues can be overcome, the other systems that might be adapted include: RF (20mm flange), Fujifilm (17.7mm), MFT (to APSC, maybe with some vignetting) (19.25mm), Canon RF and Leica L (both 20mm). Then with existing adapters, this would extend to Canon EF mount etc. Happy days! I’m a Canon EF/ Lumix MFT shooter but have been wondering (1) whether a Nikon body might become a viable (cost effective) option by using my lenses with an adapter, and (2) whether the wide array of third party E mount lenses would be able to be adapted to Nikon. I really like Nikon SOOC colours, including the flat video profile. There is just something very clean and crisp about the images, especially on the full frame BSI mirrorless sensors. Canon is also great but different: a rich, organic, natural look (I don’t know the right words to describe the differences…)!

This was the deciding factor for me sticking with Nikon as I went mirrorless. There will likely eventually be a time when I don't have to worry if an awesome lens comes out for RF or E, it will be usable on the Nikon Z. Things like the Canon 28-70 f/2 or Tamron 35-150 f/2-2.8.

Hey! So you should have had a couple of months with this adapter at this point. Could you maybe give me an update about how well it all works compared to using these Sony lenses on Sony bodies? I’ll be upgrading from Fujifilm to Full frame so I have a fresh start. I am tempted to buy into the Sony ecosystem solely because of the huge variety of first and third party lenses but I’m terms of camera bodies I’d love to buy the Z9. Nikons lenses are by no means bad but I’d just like to use Sony lenses like the 14mm f1.8 and if you can actually not feel a difference if you’re using these Sony lenses on Sony bodies or on the Z9 I’d probably rather buy the Z9 and Sony lenses to go with it. I’d really appreciate a reply. Thank you so much in advance! Greetings from Germany 😊

Apologies for the delay. The Zeiss with the adapter works flawlessly with all functions on both the Z8 and 9. The only issue I have with it is that it can be difficult to put on and take off. It might just be that my version of this adapter is a bit "sticky". I hope this helps.@@jonasgillmann

I have the first generation ETZ11 adapter and it works perfectly fine with my 14mm f1.8 GM lens. The only draw back (not even really sure it was) is that I have an older 24-70mm A-mount lens that I used with a stacked Sony adapter and the autofocus did not work although the lens communicated EXIF data and I was able to control the lens aperture as far as I remember. I might get this one just to see if that older lens AF works.

Good to see but I will stick to OEM lenses where I can. I know I now 12+ Nikon lenses from wide PCe lenses to 500mm PF lenses there is know way I am changing systems. I have been more than happy with Nikon for the last 45+ yeas. Do Nikon work for every image type NO but they do a great job of what they do. I have others cameras for thought occasions in Studio when needed. But good to see someone making the Z mount even more flexible for others.

Nice info, Is it consistent, not changing diaphragm during time lapse sequences like the former version leading to heavy flickering making scenes unusable? It couldn't be corrected in postprocessing. Even lapsing at max aperture goes wrong.

The Sony 200-600mm and also the Sony 600mm 4.0 GM work great on the Z9 with the Megadap adapter. I use both lenses on the Z9 for Wildlife and action. However, its not perfect, as you can imagine as this is just an adapter based solution. For very fast moving subjects and especially in poor light there are weaknesses in focus acquisition and tracking. But so far the best adapted solution I have ever seen. Also important to know that with Teleconverter the performance becomes super bad. And it also does not work with fast lenses at max apertures, e.g,, the Sony 50mm 1.2 cannot focus at f/1.2, you need to go to f/2 or f/2.8. Same issue with the Sony 135mm 1.8 GM.

I use my Zeiss Batis 135/2.8 with the Megadap adapter on my Zs (Z fc, Z6, Z9) - works well and I have a fantastic 135mm lens on my Nikons. The new 135/1.8 Nikkor Z lens is of no use to me at all: too heavy, too big and too expensive. I hope that the adapter will also work on the Z f I have already ordered - Z 28/2.8, Z 40/2 and Zeiss 135/2.8: a combination that makes sense, is very portable and optics are very good.

7 Sony FE lenses and counting for more on Z7II. At this point I' m going FE rather than Z unless there is a damn good reason for it. Working perfectly fine are these lenses: Sigma 20mm 1.4 DG DN, Sony 35mm GM, SOny 50mm 1.2 GM, Voigtlander 50mm F2, Voigtlander 65mm F2, Voigtlander 110mm F2.5 (All Voigtlanders manual focus better as adapted since the digital rangefinder is available on adapted but not on native Voigtlander Z lenses) + Samyang 135mm F1.8 AF. I like Nikon legacy and their legacy lenses. Have some F mount telephotos also so the platform kinda makes sense. Sony AF is better right now however but Nikon's have magic 64 iso and controls I'm used to.

The distance from the back of your F mount lens to the sensor on your DSLR is very specific, the FTZ duplicates that distance on your Z Mount, any closer the F mount would not work well at all. Hope that helps

Why not.? Sony GM are some of the best, Sigma makes some excellent E and L mount lenses. The tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 is one of the most versatile lens around. For people switching between camera system this is a good idea but auto focus speed and accuracy will not match native glasses.
