You can't (and do not have to) trigger the leaf shutter through the PC terminal. The shutter that will be used is the one inside the Nikon. The aperture will be manual stop down. I have such an adapter (three in fact: one for my - decommissoned - OM cameras, one for Nikon, and one for Canon), and it works. Though i rather use lenses made for the camera, including all the auto-features they offer. As mentioned, the focal length of any lens you put on it remains what it is. The FOV equivalent Richard provides is a comparison, and shows what focal length lens you would have to use on a 35 mm film camera (of full frame 35 mm DSLR) to get the same field of view. Do not interpret that as meaning that the 60 mm an 80 mm lenses will anything other than 60 mm and 80 mm lenses on DX format as well. ----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Man To: hasselblad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, March 18, 2012 9:23 PM Subject: [HUG ] Re: Lens Lens focal length don't change when you change format, so a 60mm lens is still a 60mm lens. However, the DX sensor is 1.5x crop/multiplication-factor/whatever-you-want-to-call-it, so they are ~90mm and ~120mm FOV respectively. You will probably need to trigger the leaf shutter by using the PC terminal.
