Yes, there are both a 50 and a 105 micro on the roadmap of upcoming lenses.

Yes, what he said. But in the meantime I’m using my Tamron 90mm macro with the focus shift feature and it works flawlessly.

I am using a nikkor 60mm micro f/2.8 and it works equally flawlessly, along with the FTZ adapter.

I am currently using my 105 and 200 mm macro lenses via FTZ.

Are you manually focusing the Tamron 90mm? I have the Tamron 90mm SP. I’m waiting for Tamron to release the firmware update to support the Nikon Z series cameras.

There have been 10 different iterations of a 90mm macro lens, all designated SP. Mine is the 90mm SP DI, (model 272E), from 2004, the last external focusing model. It works great in autofocus without a firmware update.
