So I've got a Cambo 1200 and Credo 60 but no lens ... since Rodenstock 32mm is back-ordered
While I am waiting for my 32mm to arrive I have been thinking about a second lens. I think I'll stick to a 2-lens kit, so I have been contemplating either a 70mm HR or 90mm HRSW - but can't decide and am hoping to get some advice on this.
90mm SW is obviously more expensive and larger but optically superior and has a much bigger image circle. I am leaning toward 90mm but the general opinion seems to be that for longer focal lengths, the difference between a tech-camera lens and a MF-DSLR lens is minimal - so I wonder about the wisdom of such a premium.
70mm HR also has a decent image circle is smaller and seems to be optically pretty good.
I've evaluated my image library and notice a lot of shots that I like happen to be in the 45mm-55mm range. So both 70mm HR (~43mm equivalent) and 90mm SW (~56mm equivalent) should work.
Any practical experiences and observations with these lenses or focal lengths in field use?
Preferences - one over the other?
Cheers!
