The flange distance from sensor to back of the lens on the Z6 is 16mm, the flange distance on the Nikon 1 V3 is 17mm. Now the sensor size of the V3 is 1” while the Z6 is full frame or 1.37795” requiring more distance for spreading the circle. Why couldn’t they make an adapter for Nikon 1 lenses to either DSLR or mirror-less cameras. Just a thought. Can anyone point out a flaw in the logic?
The image circle does get bigger as you move the lens away from the sensor but it would only focus at very close distance. Even then I don't think the image circle from the Nikon 1 lens would be sufficient to cover the FX sensor.
