Back in the film SLR days, Nikon tended to make lines of lenses with common filter sizes, reducing the number of filter sizes you needed to deal with. With the Z-mount, unfortunately, Nikon has proliferated and scattered filter sizes.

Is there a way to deal with this huge array of filter needs? Sort of: use step-up rings. Buy filter sets at 52mm, 67mm, 77mm, and 95mm, and then add 46-to-52mm, 62-to-67mm, 72-to-77mm, and 82-to-95mm step-up rings. The problem with this approach is that it means that lens hoods don't fit on lenses where you're using the step up ring.
The Tamron autofocus Z-mount lenses so far use two filter sizes:
- 67mm
- 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3
- 82mm
- 35-150mm f/2-2.8
- 150-500mm f/5-6.7
