I know that if i fastfall and then perform an aerial, i can cancel the lag of the move by pressing z. but what if it's an empty jump, still fastfalled without the aerial? is that lag cancelable? is there even a lag from fastfalling, or is it my imagination? also, how many frames of lag is there from landing from a fastfall?

Z-cancelled aerial + no fastfall:
4 frames of uninteruptable landing animation (lag)

Fastfall + Z-cancelled aerial:
8 frames of uninteruptable landing animation (lag)

Double the amount.

Generally you can't cancel landing animation, of course there are a few exceptions where all lag is cancelled. However, it is not done by pressing Z.
All this information is already available in my old posts.
Z-cancel removes the lag from the aerial attack. It cannot remove lag from landing.
