Favorite MF lens focal length

[woodyspedden]

I use the 55 and 80 for about 65% of all my shots. Then comes the 150 for maybe 25%. The 35 is the next 5% followed by the 110 and 300 for the final 5% combined.

For me Jack

On the Hassy the 28mm, followed by the 100 2.2 and then the 180 V lens perhaps with a 1.4 tele extender captures most of my shots. Your mileage may vary but I am Happy. Love the Zeiss look...just MHO

That was the lens I really wanted Peter was the 35mm on the Alpa

I cant wait for the Rodenstock 23mm - have already sold my Schneider 24 XL digitar. The Rodenstock will be the last lens I buy for Alpa - unless I talk myself into longer lenses to use shooting LV tethered in studio.

Peter- You took those words right out of my mouth! I will get that damn 23HR however way possible!

The schneider 60mm f/3.5 curtagon has logged a lot of time on my Rollei 6008, followed by the 110/2. The 60mm has a special look, and is quite a useful focal length considering the sensor crop. Makes a great macro lens too with the extensions (something that can't be said of the 110/2).


Actually, though I wouldn't want to have to pick a favorite. I've used the 90mm apo, 40mm f/3.5, the 55mm pcs, and the 150mm apo, and the 80mm pqs all quite a bit and I don't feel let down by any of them.
