There are T-mount adapters for many medium format cameras, so T-mount lenses should be a viable possibility if they have a big enough image circle. The FD 200 f/1.8L would make a very shallow depth of field option on miniMF. You would be talking about the equivalent of a 150mm f/1.4 lens on FF 35mm. Very shallow depth of field that would be. Even Lee's Leica 180 f/2, which I am pretty sure will cover the image circle would almost get you there as it would be a about a 150mm f/1.6 or so.
The Nikon 300 f/2 certainly would be shallower, however, if it covers the image circle. For those who are interested Popflash does have one listed for a $1,000 less than the bay one noted on the previous page. It is a mere $21,888. It too has been modified for cinema applications.

Reason, I think at least some adaptall lenses would work is that they have been designed for pretty much everything 35mm so I would have thought they would err on the larger size coverage.
They made adaptalls for at least Minolta, Pentax, Olympus OM, Nikon and M42. Not sure they were made for Canon FD originally but have been since (I have one and it seems to be ok)
Then again, I wonder how a 150 or 250 f0.75 MF lens for aerial photography would go? How much they would cost now and how huge would they be?
