Charles, Darrell and all people who comment and likes, thank you guys for all your kind comments and likes. I appreciate.
I have been really enjoying using Z7 no matter use it during travel, around family, or shooting bird with 300f4PF&1.4TC.(will share a few images later) The images have consistently excellent sharpness and color with good acurity that I don't see before from similar speced sensor. D850 can be as sharp with lens like OTUS and disciplined shooting but I don't get this kind of performance reliably during regular shooting. No kidding.
The more I use it, the more I feel review of its AF is very true. Maybe it is the F lens, but with 300PF&FTZ with or without TC, tracking a fly bird is almost impossible once the bird is start fill the frame. Long distance might workable. Z seems very easy to make wrong focus decision that lose the focus or simply lock to background and never look back. D850 seldom do that.
However, only after get Z7, I start shooting bird images. I still enjoy it the most for the bird image I am doing. Silent shutter and lots of patience If it lock the focus, the images will be sharp.

Beautiful work as usual Michael. Don’t lose faith in the thread, Novoflex hasn’t even started shipping adapters yet. I am sure things will pick up here once more people have the camera and adapters.
Thanks, I just got Kipon from Adorama. It has quite a bit better build quality than Shoten. I'd say it feel as good as Voigtlander or Novoflex I have.
The M lens is still pass infinity. I don't have time to shimm it or do any test but I am happy with the quality for both Z and M end, tight fit

Another wonderful set Michael. I'm assuming the 15 III is the VM version. I've been musing about adding it to the VM 21 Ultron, 28 & 35 Ultron LTM and 40 Nokton. I've spent some time with the 21 and 40 on the Z7 using a shimmed Kipon adapter and really like the results so far.
Yes, Mine is VM version. For Z7, it is hard to not recommend its native lenses, so good.
For daily shooting, I love adapte M glass such as 50mm lux, 75mm lux or 90 APO alone with 35mmf1.7 VC. Corner is not an issue. I have a feeling, once native WA zoom hit the market, very few people will care adapting m glass on Z.

Don't worry Michael, there are more of us out here. My Novoflex Leica M adapter just arrived, it's much better than the Shoten. Just getting started testing a few lenses. Here's the Leica Summilux 75 and the Macro-Elmarit R 100/2.8 testing for color, bokeh, and sharpness...
Congratulation on your new adapter. That two lenses will be very happy on Z7
