Well, only Z-mount lenses. Maybe some of the full frame Z lenses, too, as I did in the past with FX lenses on DX cameras. But let's see if I actually find the time for that... a lot of work has piled up here 
The camera has arrived, btw. Size-wise, it seems perfect, a bit smaller and thinner than the Z7, but still big enough to provide a good grip (the X-T30 is much smaller... almost too small). The standard zoom is very compact, especially when collapsed, but feels really cheap.
When the DX 16-50 is mounted, the Z50 does automatically apply distortion correction, it can not be switched off in the menu as long as this lens is mounted, the menu item is greyed out (same is true for the 24-70/4 on the Z6/7). Surprisingly, one can also not select the mechanical shutter with this lens.
The tele zoom feels a lot more solid, even though it's also plastic only. However, it's also really huge. Easily twice the size of the current AF-S DX 55-200 VR II. And when extended, even longer than the AF-P 70-300 DX VR. Whatever reason Nikon seems to believe could make this lens attractive to anyone, it's definitely not size...
