By [NR] admin | Published: July 25, 2024

Here are some interesting and useless stats – a list of currently available Nikon Nikkor Z-mount lenses vs. F-mount lenses:

Adorama:

Nikkor Z-mount lenses: 42
Nikkor F-mount lenses: 40 (only 33 in stock)

Nikon USA:

Nikkor Z-mount lenses: 44
Nikkor F-mount lenses: 71 (not sure what is going on here – I guess they still list all discontinued F-mount lenses)

Nikon UK:

Nikkor Z-mount lenses: 43
Nikkor F-mount lenses: 39

Nikon Japan:

Nikkor Z-mount lenses: 43
Nikkor F-mount lenses: 36

The teleconverters could have caused some of the above discrepancies – some sites count them as lenses, and others don’t.
