Hello, i'm Tinus and are living in the origin land of alpas..
as a alpa newbe its 'll a bit confusing with the different types of lenses and which ones to choose for a start. I had so far the Mamiya 645 DF with the 40+ Back, mainly using the 75-150 zoom - and will probably now go for the Alpa STC and using the same Back of course. I will do mainly landscape with this camera, using the shifting (left/right). i use very rare great wide angle lens, so i considered to start maybe with a 43/XL 5.6/48 Helvetar or a 47/XL and a 90 Schneider would be fine. And of course I d'ont want to limit myself to the 40+, maybe in a few years I will go for the IQ 160.
So my question is this: Would you recommend me both lenses for the 40+ and IQ 160 ? is it fine to shift them ? Or would your recommend me the Rodies or other lenses ?
Thanks and :salute:
