Can someone give me a little detail on this, please? I just poked around a bit the omer night by holding an FA28/2.8 in front of an FA28-70/4. Just looking through teh finder shows me a circle in the middle of the image, not a full frame.. That's not whats supposed to happen, is it? Shouldn't I get a full frame image? Or, is it because I was using a lens in normal position that had a smaller aperature than the reversed lens? I did one quick websearch which said that circular image was normal, but I can't imagine that's correct.. if it is, it seems downright infuriating, and I can't figure out how anyone deals with it. -- http://www.infotainment.org <-> more fun than a poke in your eye. http://www.eighteenpercent.com <-> photography and portfolio.
