I was using the D850 and was frankly while loving that camera, was disappointed in the sub 2.2 aperture output of the 58, even more so than on the D810. I finally got around to trying the Z7 and there is no doubt that the mirrorless option improves the results on this lens. I had sold 3 copies before because while I loved the creativity of the lens, there are limits on how much resolution loss I can tolerate. The Z7 does improve performance on the 58 and the 105 but certainly a DSLR has loads of other advantages, I have made the switch to mirrorless though because of the 58 alone. It was that important to me because I find the 58mm FL to be extremely useful in my photography and love the design philosophy behind the 58 and 105. Thus pair does make the Nikon experience worthwhile in my view.
