I agree with Tom. Boris, you're making it much more complicated than reality:
Film body: all lenses up to FA series, include D-FA for full coverage. If some DA lenses cover larger format, bonus ... otherwise enjoy the vignette. DSLR body: all lenses. That's it. When I had the MX body, I fitted it with the DA14 lens for a test look. It illuminated a circle about 27-28mm wide, cut off at top and bottom by the 24x36 mm format dimension. Perfectly usable (at f/22) for a square format 24x24mm on the 35mm film format, with field of view quite similar to that of a Hasselblad SWC. A body with Program or Shutter Priority capability would have worked the aperture mechanism too. What's confusing with that?
