What the hell?

You can increase your DOF by stopping down on your 35mm lens. Of course you need enough light to accomodate this.
 
yep, that's it. but you are especially limited with the older model adapter with how far you can close the iris down, before you start to see the motion of the screen. there are still limitations on the newer models as to how far you can close the lens, but more so with the Rev2
 
Not at all. You wil just need a bit more light available than some of the newer adapters. The SGPro, even your version, had a great image.
 
Probably the most you'll be able to stop down will be f5.6, which is fine because it's most likely the lens' sharpest point and will give more than adequate dof for shooting. But in lower light be ready to shoot wide open, it's a struggle sure, but that's common even on modern adapters.
 
I tried playing around with the lens, but when I tried getting a larger dof, the image looked awful. I didn't have a whole lot of light to play with, but it looked like horrible grain, but much worse. Is it supposed to look like that?
