Can Nikon mirrorless use DX lenses?
Combining the Z 50 with the new NIKKOR Z DX lenses, the new DX mirrorless system will deliver stunning images, from wide-angle to telephoto. Equipped with a large 20.9 MP DX-format sensor, the Z 50 brings the optical advantages of Nikon mirrorless into a strong, compact DX body.
Is Nikon Z worth buying?
The Nikon Z system is awesome – and I believe underrated. It has some of the best lenses on the market, amazing AF-S autofocus capabilities, great weight/quality balance, and well thought-out handling.
Do Nikon Z lenses have stabilization?
None of the new Nikkor Z lenses are stabilized, because the Z-series cameras come with an IBIS (in-body image stabilization) system that moves the sensor to compensate for camera shake; by contrast, F-mount cameras use lens-based image stabilization. The Z mount’s larger dimensions also come with a downside, though.

Re: why are the Z mount S line lens 50% more expensive than their F peers? They are designed new at higher standard: to match the higher MP sensor and bigger mount called Z. Of course Nikon will ask for much more than the real cost, even though they are easier to design and made in Thailand.

How do I know if my Nikon lens is DX or FX?
“Here there are the letters DX next to the Nikon name, which means this lens is optimized for cameras with a DX-format sensor—the D300S or D7000, for instance. If you don’t see DX, then the lens is optimized for FX-format cameras, like the D3X, D3S or D700.
Are FX lenses better than DX?
The size of the sensor is obviously important and FX shows that it is a far more capable sensor than DX when it comes to things like noise and dynamic range. In addition, you have to factor in differences in field of view when using lenses.
What happens if you use a DX lens on an FX camera? On an FX-format camera with a DX lens mounted, the camera will automatically engage its built-in DX crop mode, thus recording an image only from the center section of the sensor.
