So, I agree with your point that adding the FT1 adapter does take from it's portability and small size. That's exactly what prevented me from purchasing the FT1. Eventually, I gave in and bought the FT1. Why the change of heart? Because of the 2.7 X crop factor of the Nikon 1's sensor. Add a long DX/FX lens to it, and you will be amazed at the additional distance that the Nikon 1 allows for. If I'm wanting to keep it LIGHT, I don't pack the FT1 or any of my FX lenses with my Nikon 1. But, sometimes you want that added length and it's nice to have that as an option.</p></blockquote><p></p>
