Lenses - views & experiences sought

I'm looking for a wide angle now and not sure which way to go. The 35-90 is essentially the same size as the 120 which is ok but doesn't fit my typical idea of a small/quick wide angle. However, it is a zoom so that helps. Don't know much about the 35 or 50 and the 28 is a little wide for what I shoot.

Nearly all of my images online (www.jecxz.com) were made using HC(D) lenses (there are some pre-2005 which were created using Canon L lenses and a few panoramic by a FUJI 617). www.jecxz.com

Pricks up ears. You can use Canon L lenses on a H camera? How, tell me more, more. I would love to be able to use my 24-105 on the H2.

This is a lens post; I was directing people to my website for numerous HC[D] samples.

For full disclosure, before 2005, I used Canon, so there are some photographs on my website that were not made with the H platform, but instead, were created with Canon, and my Canon L lenses. And a Fuji 617.

I didn't think it would cause confusion, my apologies.

Just bought the 28mm. Will let you guys know what I think in a week or so.

That must be a misunderstanding .
I believe you can not use CANON L lenses on any HASSELBLAD camera .
First of all , the image circle would not cover the 120 film size , but perhaps the 37x37mm sensor or with restrictions the 36x48mm sensor .
Also I doubt , there would be an adapter .
Correct me , if I am wrong .

Be sure to utilize DAC in Phocus.

Panorama with HCD 28

From 2GB to 147KB...

I think that pic has huge potential but it posts a little dark on my monitor. Would love to see it a little brighter.

Thats kind of you - thank you. Here it is. Did quite a few panos with the 28mm, like this one, that have been stitched but not processed very well yet

Much better!!! A beautiful shot. Really seems to capture the mood of the place. Well done.
