Hi everyone;
I currently have two 90mm lenses. My big 90mm Komura I use on my monorail for any and all archeitechual (sp?). The circle on it actually covers 5x7 with movements, so I am pretty happy with it.
For backpacking, on my old Super Speed Graphic, i use a Lindholf Angulon, 90mm. Great little lens. The only complaint I have, is on my camera, the point of focus is right against the body of the camera, so I have little to no room for movement.
When hiking, 90% of my shots are either on a 135mm or a 180mm (both Sironars). 99% HP5+ or Tri-X. Sometimes I want something a bit wider than the 135mm, but a bit more movement than my 90mm Angulon.
The Fujinon 105mm CM-W specs looks like it would work for me. Like I siad, for buildings, I have another 90mm already, I want something smallish, and it doesn't have be as wide a 90mm.
Anybody out there ever use this lens? Anythoughts? Or anything else somebody might reccomend in this size/range to replace my Angulon?
thanks
joe
