A company, as Fuji, can easily design a MF to use std. FF lenses by just adjusting the flange distance. And it was smart of Fuji to do so.
I didn't think that was what they did though. As far as I am aware, the Fuji G-mount is exclusive to their medium-format cameras.
Wouldn't changing the flange distance result in a lens that might not focus to infinity? I mean, if this technique worked you'd see Canon EF users buying cheap EFS lenses and extension tubes for regular shooting to avoid vignetting.
Hmmm, I think you’re right. The adapters would have to be glassed to refocus the lenses!
I’m not actually familiar with the Fuji’s. Maybe Derrel can tell us if the the lenses were being used with glassed adapters??
