The image was taken with an 80mm lens and a sensor that is 53.9mm X 40.4mm: I guess that's 645 format. It was also a stitch of two images that overlapped. The back was shifted 10mm to the left (exposing more on the image's right). So certainly not "normal" (not much about me is...). And the sensor was in portrait mode... That said, I'd love to have a table that shows what my lenses are in 35mm format with this sensor AND with 10mm shift and 20mm shift (both right and left shifts of 10mm). E.g., what's my 32mm lens in 35mm format terms unshifted, shifted 10mm and shifted 20mm? I have a 150, 80, 50 and 32... Anyone got an easy spreadsheet? So my apologies for the confusion, but I still like the image though the "perspective seems really strange".... :-) On Thu, Jul 9, 2015 at 7:04 PM, George Lottermoser < george.imagist at icloud.com> wrote: > Yes.
