I've attached my Nikon 3T achromatic close-up lens to my 35/2 AL (v1) and got around 27-28 cm minimum focus distance and a slightly lower magnification (1:4.8) than the recently announced 35/2 AL v2 (Z-mount). I didn't try my Nikon 4T attachment lens.
The Nikon 3T attachment lens induces field curvature and other minor aberrations at the borders. This might add "character" to close-ups of 3D subjects For copy stand work, I'd recommend other set-ups.
You can scrutinize test images @ f/2.8 and f/8 here; in images 06NX and 07NX I've focused near the border, not in the center. In images 08NX & 09 NX you should see more clearly the curving of the focus plane (Glenn Gould CDs are more close to the sensor).

P.S.: I bet the Leica ELPRO 52 should provide better image quality at even higher magnifications (around 1:3, see here); in fact, let me remind that 3T & 4T attachment lenses were designed for telephoto lenses. The Leica Elpro 52 is rather expensive though.
Looks nice and pleasant. It seems I live in hotel rooms more than my home these days. Unfortunately, I’m only at the hotel to sleep and shower during dark hours then it’s off to work. My X100VI or GRIII sit patiently in my work bag hoping I can take them for a spin. I’ve taken my Zf a few times but not with the CV APO (it really is a sweet lens.)
The ZF + APO got me to sell the XVI. Not as compact but love the results and shooting experience so much more.
