I don't understand what you have in mind for "reverse to the adapter".

"Reverse to adapter" provides a different distance (the correct one) between the sensor and the front lens of the inverted optics, than "reverse to body".

So, the solution is "reverse to adapter" (and it works very well).

The magnification ratio and the effect on the image captured on sensors of different sizes needs another discussion.
