Reason for keeping the 24×34mm size
I'm pretty sure that the reason for keeping the 24×34mm size on the Nikon M and S is that the body casting did not allow a longer exposure frame, and the company did not want to have a new casting made specially for that. There was certainly no doubt on the corner sharpness of the Nikkor lenses, which were originally computed to cover the full 24×36mm format on the Canon, and were also sold in Leica mount. --rebollo_fr 10:49, 25 May 2009 (EDT)
