Even more dissapointing than the Df. At least that would work well with the old MF lenses, and was lighter than the 'modern' options.
Just a fashion statement.
I get more manual focus and AF lens functionality from Xt3 and Fringer.

The only way the DF worked well with old MF lenses was they didn’t need an adapter. The manual focus screen on the DF sucked. At least the Zf will be able to manually focus those lenses accurately.
On the Df the diaphragm works. As it does on most chipped lenses on the Fringer adapter (Voigtlander and Zeiss, plus af and af-d). Not rocket science to put the lens focal length and max aperture choices in the menu lime dslrs.
And you could change the screen in the Df.
Might as well buy a Z6, or even Z5 and save money
You could
