Your message is a valient attempt at the English Language, but it is a bit difficult to understand. I think what you are saying is that you have a way to attach 35mm lenses to DV-Cam and perhaps Super-8mm in which the depth of field will look as if it was shot on 35mm.

It's not just about putting the lense on - because if you do that you'll need to alter the notmal focal length of the 35mm lense and thus lose the depth of field - it's about using a 35mm lense to put an image on a spinning glass disc (or blank CD in DIY attempts) and then filming that image with it's inherant DOF characteristics.

There's heaps of info and threads about this technique at

There was a discussion here with a guessing game and examples on filming from the groundglass of a still camera. Was it a 120 of 135 camera?

I recently bought a polaroidback for a Nikon F3 at a real bargain. This transporterglass used in it seemed like it was filmable. Have not tried it though. I guess this glass is made from 1000-s of glassfiber all crammed together just to lift the image from the focalplane onto the polaroidfilm just 5mm further.
