Hello and thanks for the detailed setup info! Question for setting up NON - CPU lenses: in the focal length setting - prime lens mm set is obvious, BUT! what do you choose to set if you have an old ai-s zoom lens, like 35-70mm would you set the start of the lens @35 or ending focal length @ 70mm ??? Anyone know which mm to enter into the setting !!????! please help! thanks
Very useful video. I’m trying to find out how to set the ZF to pre AF. The XT 5 has it in a menu option. I can’t find it anywhere. I’m going to ring Nikon tomorrow. Is this possible?
Not possible. The closest thing the Zf has is "AF-F" autofocus mode but that's only for Video, not Stills. There's not automatic pre-focus for Stills mode like Fujifilm has.
There's no "self timer button" but you can program the function "Release Mode" to a button - that's what you use to set the self timer. Program that in Custom Settings f2.
Thanks for comprehensive walkthrough
You’re welcome, I hope it helped!
Much appreciated. Best wishes !

@@PeltierPhoto Many thanks. The auto focus does appear pretty fast with my use so far so maybe I can do without. Happy New Year.
@@chrismacdonald.6295 yeah, I think Pre-AF will become a "dinosaur" feature with the AF speeds that cameras have now. Cheers.
Could anyone reffer where is the Zf self timer button? On the camera? (Not in the menu)
