Look through the Shake PDF docs... they provide an abundance of information. I know the ZDepth is addressed there.

If the img is from Maya U've got to invert the Z-channel for shake to be able to read it. Don remember exactly how i did it (monday morning) but think here should be a tutorial on the subject

If you look for the MayaZ plugin in the cook book, that should give you alot of info.
