MTF Services is proud to announce the arrival of a complete range of 4 world-first lens adapters for Nikon’s new full-frame mirrorless camera system, the Z-Series, with further adapters following shortly after for maximum versatility.
6 World First Nikon Z-Mount Adapters from MTF – Including:

Mike Tapa, Managing Director at MTF Services said: “Since the recent announcement of the exciting new Z-Series camera system, mount and initial lens products from Nikon, we have been working tirelessly to produce a range of adapters to open up the potential for filmmakers. We believe that Nikon has delivered a really interesting proposition with this new system and have designed the products with filmmaking in mind.
As customers spanning over a decade of manufacture would expect from MTF lens adapters, every aspect from design, to production and finishing of the brand’s products; the new Z Series lens adapters carry the exact-same level of British craftsmanship and build quality, ensuring years of sturdy and reliable shooting with each and every adapter.
The new range of Z Series lens adapters from MTF will be available to view during IBC 2018, which takes place between the 13 – 18th September at the RAI in Amsterdam and will be available to order at the end of September 2018.MTF will be found in hall 12, on Stand F72.
Shipping will coincide with availability of initial products from Nikon’s Z Series full-frame mirrorless system. All pricing will be announced shortly.
Mike continued: “Nikon has launched a ‘real’ competition series to Sony’s full-frame mirrorless system. We believe that coupled with the superior design and manufacture of our new range of lens adapters to broaden the shooting options for those with collections of rival glass, the new Z Series can quickly become a system of choice for many videographers and filmmaking applications.”

New Nikon Z6 AstroKit
Primalucelab announced the first Z6 AstroKit:
Nikon Z6 is the mirrorless camera with a full frame sensor (24x36mm) that, thanks to our astrophotography adapter kit, is perfect for telescopes! The 24x36mm 24MP sensor, with large 6 micron pixels, is positioned only 16mm from the bayonet and allows you to reach the focus more easily with different telescopes. The new Nikon Z bayonet offers a wide 55mm free opening to avoid vignetting even with fast focal ratios. Our AstroKit includes a special converter from Nikon Z bayonet to M48 thread to connect the camera to the telescopes with a connection for 50.8mm (2”) diameter filters, perfect for use with light pollution reduction filters. Our Giotto optional filter drawer also allows you to change the filter without disassembling the camera and integrates an off-axis guider: all with a thickness of 55mm, the value required by most correctors and reducers for astrophotography with telescopes.
