I have the say. Canon's RF glass has been magnificent. During my foray with the EOS RP, I found the RF glass to be superb in every way.

If anything I prefer the lenses that Canon has launched for its R series over Nikon's Z series lenses. A shame I hated to the EOS RP.

With Nikon Z short mount there must be a Z2C adaptor?  If there isn't I'm sure somebody could make one for the price of a pint of beer.

If such an adapter was around then I think I might look to try and find the awesome Canon 17mm f4 Tilt/Shift lens.

If Nikon would make one, Price aside , I would still be on the fence , as either ,..focal range is not that interesting at f2.0,...if it was f1.4 or faster I would save up for one...Or...if it was at 35-100 f2.0,...and the price was Not more than 2000,- usd.

Why that PC 17 f4.0.....because of foc.length or `cause it`s a Canon ? ( I have noticed there are those that consider Canon`s PC glass to be superior to that of Nikon )

Personally, the Nikkor PC-E 19 f4.0 is of interest, but the price...as it is , the 14-24 kept Level on the D3X  at No higher than 400 iso with cropping aplied in NX-D,  is a workable substitute when shown in A3 format,perhaps even in A2 format ( have n`t tried A2 yet ).

Going the Extreme route...there`s the LAOWA Venus PC 15 f4.5...something I consider myself...saw some examples that looked Convincing.

I remember you being a fellow 14-24 owner,so..why the Canon ?

The Nikon 19mm f4 just doesnt have the breadth of capture of the Canon but the  native mount on the Nikon 19mm does have many advantages.

Are you considering to use a PC lens with an EVF finder..?..look, i`m not one to argue..it`s just that admittedly ,my rather shallow experience with EVF finders cause me to wonder if that is the route to take...as far as I could tell, the EVF is Not the best finder for such application as it is rather difficult to judge the view under those circumstances.

The Very reason that I`m Not even considering a Z camera is that I have several PC Nikkors, which are used oftentimes, and could be viewed as my Primary set-up even.

Have you or have others tried a PC with EVF ?...Would Love to hear your experiences.

I havent tested my 24mm PCE on the FTZ adapter on my Z7 yet.
I am just in the process of moving house so dont have much time.  I am thinking the PCE wont work on the TFZ/Z7 but will report back when I have tested.
