Teleconvertor and FTZ conflicting statements

[horse.collier]

I have read conflicting statements on using an FTZ and a z mount 1.4 converter. Some say it works, where others say that it doesn't due to connectivity issues. Camera i am using is the z6iii

If possible, visit a retailer to check that it'll work, Then, if it does, spend the extra that the retailer is charging for the kit from them rather than saving a few quid by buying online.

It won't work. The FTZ connects the Z mount body to an F mount lens; you would need to use an F mount TC. You also cannot use the Z TC before the FTC as it won't communicate.

That's what I had read and just wanted it confirmed by others. Thank you

I'm using F mount TC's with am FTZ adapter for F mount lenses to Z mount bodies without issue.
Not sure if I'm missing something but if you have a Z mount lens and a Z mount camera why do you need an FTZ adapter (As per your 2nd post)?
Surely you just need a Z mount TC...and £579.00 in loose change.

Reading between the lines as we often have to on here Graham , I think the OP has a Z body and Z lens ? But a F mount t.c , maybe ,perhaps who knows LOL
