Re: Nikon Zf as a platform for adapted/native manual focus lenses
I own the 35APO and I’ve shot with the 50APO a fair bit and can confirm those are exceptional, with he 50 being nearly flawless. The 65 isn’t quite on that level wide open but it’s still very good across the frame wide open, and at least at 45MP, is tack sharp to the corners by f/4. At that aperture I think you’d need to be shooting at 80MP or higher to really see any difference.
EDIT: As an aside - here are 100% upper left extreme corner crops of the 65/2 APO on my Z8, so 45MP resolution, focused at minimum focus distance, so 1:2 magnification. f/2.0 is definitely a little softer than when stopped down, but still what I would call good to very good resolution, while stopped down it becomes excellent very quickly.
