Z7 and 105E from RAW post processed in Lr.
Lightroom read the Z7 NEF Raw file? What version of LR do you have?
Yes I was surprised too Lr is on subscription so it is the latest version. Just the profiles you need to adjust to suit. I also have C1 Pro which for volume work I find slows me down and not as intuitive. The latest version of Lr is very different compared to 2 or 3 versions before. The sharpening is set at a different default and the color profiles for Adobe Color are excellent for most images. For Nikon NEF images the latest version of Lr is great! Whereas for Fuji XTrans files I needed intermediary process steps.
If you are after the best color profiles, Capture NX-D is superb.
There was a big update in LR, PS, ACR, about 3 nights about 5 nights ago. I assume that all the Z7 supports came out at that time. PS supports Z7 NEF now as well.
I really like C1 default color output very much but got annoyed that I bought a version for Sony A7r and suddenly one day, it stopped working and I had to buy a new version according to C1 even though at the time I did not upgrade a camera or anything else. Also C1 did not support GFX which was annoying as I could not then use one program for all my cameras so I stopped looking C1 for now.
May be when it supports all the cameras that I have, I will look at it again.
Yes, the latest Lr does support the Z7 RAW but it does require to select a profile when you first open the image
