Yes ... yes in that there may be focal lengths or optical
characteristics that the larger format lens may have that would be
useful on a 35mm camera. However, more often than not it's because
it can be done, and allows the photographer to buy only one lens in
a focal length rather than one for each camera format. Pentax 6x7
lenses will also work on a 35mm Pentax.
