That's wrong! The maximum aperture depends only on the lens, not on the sensor/film you put behind it.
Wrong eh? Well I guess it's possible, it's happened before, let's think about this.
F number does not directly correlate to aperture, f-number is a ratio. Focal length divided by size of maximum exit pupil.
An f/1.4 50mm, is a 35mm exit pupil. A 35mm maximum exit pupil, with a new effective focal length of 85mm, is now 85/35 or f 2.4.
Right.....or Wrong? Teach Me.
