The XPan (double width 35mm panoramic) have only 3 lens, so the choice is made for you. I use them in the following frequency: 45mm - 60% (similar to ~24mm in 35mm FOV but crop to 24x65 ratio) 30mm - 20% (similar to ~18mm but crop to ...) 90mm - 20% (similar to ~45mm ...) On the Leica, I use 35mm probably 70% of the time, 50mm 20%, and 75/85 for 10% but really mainly for portrait there. On the 4/3, I use it mainly for events, so the needs are drastically different. I will guess that I will use a 35mm equivalent lens the most, which for the P30, according to the Capture free's XLS worksheet, would be a 45mm lens. Hence my original thinking of returning the 60mm and get a 50mm Distagon instead (found the worksheet after I bought the lens :-) ) On Wed, Jan 26, 2011 at 8:23 AM, Q.G. de Bakker <qnu@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Richard Man wrote: > > Well, my main problem is that I have no reference for shooting with the >> P30. >> My main gear has been XPan for fine arts, 4/3 for events and Leica for >> everything >> else.
