The camera and lens you have chosen cannot be combined. Here is a longer answer:

A non-Nikon lens on a Nikon camera

This is a Canon lens and unfortunately they are not constructed to work with Nikon cameras. If the lens would have been a Sigma, Tamron och Tokina it would perhaps be different since they are available with a compatible Nikon mount.

Not a lens for the Nikon Z-system

This camera and this lens is not compatible. For this camera, you can only use lenses that are constructed to work with the Nikon Z-system. If you are using the Nikon Lens Mount Adapter FTZ you can also use other and older Nikon lenses.
