Nikon Z6 questions

I just purchased the Z6---and when I get my adapters I have every confidence this will be a lovely video imaging camera--and much more pleasant to shoot with than the a7III.
Having said that Nikon nomenclature has be a bit flummoxed. 

F'rinstance, after some assiduous searching I finally discovered Nikon called "zebras" "highlights." My, how creative.

So, now I'm wondering that do they call "shoot without lens?" 

Enquiring minds want to know. 

Any suggestions?!?

They refer to as "Non-CPU Lens Data" and its found in Menu>SETUP

This will let you profile the lens for the camera to understand for IBIS etc

Obviously, you also have to be in Manual mode for the shutter release to work.

As it is new territory one can't be certain, but while the "Maximum aperture" setting is useful for Nikon AI/AIS lenses, in that the aperture data is mechanically transferred via the FTZ adaptor, I doubt that will be the case for other adaptors as they come along. So presumably any non-AI/AIS manual lenses will just record the maximum aperture in the EXIF files not the actual aperture.
