Can the focal length of this lens be increased with a teleconverter?
Asked by: Paul
This may be used with teleconverters that have no optical tube in their design, but not traditional teleconverters (such as Nikon's own 1.4x and 2.0x) that have them.

I am planning to order one for my d750. Will the f-mount come with it Fit a z mount? Or is there a separate z mount adapter available?
Asked by: raymond
The lens is a Nikon F mount lens. If you want to use it on a different camera than the D750. Like a Nikon Z mount, you will need to get an adapter. This is one option for a lens adapter, Nikon FTZ Mount Adapter BH #NIFTZ • MFR #4185 https://bhpho.to/37kPGgs Note, the lens is manual only and it is not full frame. Used on your D750, it will crop the image by 1.5 times. And you will lose a lot of resolution.

Is this apse or full frame? Listing says both.

Is this apse or full frame? Listing says both.
Asked by: Grant
Since it’s a T-mount lens, it will cover the full 35mm frame. But with the proper choice of adapter it will cover any of the (common) smaller sensors such as micro-4/3 and APS-C
