Hi All,
As a follow on from my decision to buy a H3D 31 I am thinking that the best start out lens would be the 50-110 zoom. It is a versatile focal range even with the 1.3 FOV of the 31mpx back and is very sharp from all reports. Downside the cost, size and weight.
So looking for comments to if you only had one lens what would you use?

Firstly if you can only afford one lense why dont you go Canon and get 5 leneses and a ds3
on paper the zoom looks to be the solution - and if I was limited to one lens it would probably have to be that
BUT
in reality I shoot mainly handheld and picked it up once and my neck back and arms said
NO NO NO NOI bought the 50 - money didnt come into the equation
You will end up buying more lenses no doubt and if the zoom end up staying in your bag then it ends up being a waste of money
The 50 - lovely - that would be my one lens
in reality I have an 80 too and a 1.7 converter
do the maths on that combo
50,80,1.7
That would be my budget entry to the H system
thats what lives in Bag1 with my blad
I am lucky enought to have a bag2 which contains the 35 but is rarely opened
befroe you buy the zoom check out the minimum focus didstance - I dont know but guess it may be a bit poor compared to the primes
with the 80 the 13mm extension is the best spent money in the blad system
