BTW, I have a Pentax Q7 and 3 lenses.. the size is impressive but the IQ is just acceptable it’s fun though.. I have mounted a Pentax 645 lens on the tiny body.. silly and funI have recently searched for information on the CX mount to see how it compares with the Z mount, but I could not find anything in the official press releases announcing the Nikon 1 system. In contrast, the Z system announcement included technical details about the Z mount. Perhaps because Nikon did not have a direct competitor for the CX mount like it has for the FF Z mount (Pentax Q was smaller, m43 was larger). Perhaps because the customers for which the CX mount was intended were most likely not interested in such details.
I was able to find, from a 2020 Fstoppers article, that the CX mount has a 39.5 mm throat diameter, and a flange distance of... 17 mm
I also found a nice comparison of flange distances for different mounts at https://briansmith.com/flange-focal-distance-guide/
Thank you!@Darin Marcus great album you’ve got going..
