    Sharpest Hasselblad XCD lenses

    Not much to add to above; all are exemplary. Only can suggest a comparison of the 28P and 30X: the smaller 28 is great for carrying around, and quite good. however, there is a bit of edge distortion (visible for architectural work), which is not the case in the excellent 30mm. That lens is...

    Pico with Schneider 180T

    Speaking of extension tubes, this is pretty nice: extension tubes, Linhof mount Variable length, comes with fittings for Copal 0, 1, mounts to Linhof board sizes, which is not Pico! Pretty sturdy, well made.

    Stitching by Shifting versus Twisting

    Seems like rotation is workable for many folks, and that's a lot easier. Staying within the lens limits, not overdoing it, perhaps shooting landscape rather than architecture helps too. Probably software has gotten much better at too. My interest is in careful aligments of vertical and...

    Stitching by Shifting versus Twisting

    Very well put. There is possibly another related issue, involving the difference between elevations and perspectival views. While all photo images involve perspective, the assembly of a set of shifted images has all the images using one point of view - akin to an architectural elevation - a...

    Hasselblad 250SA and Teleconverter 1.4XE (not mutar)

    At one time had the Schneider 300 APO for the Rollei cameras - and replaced it with the 250 Zeiss - which I think is the same lens here (not sure - I don't think it was APO). At f8 or f11, was just as sharp, almost the same focal length and about ½ the weight. I really liked that Zeiss lens.

    Which XCD lenses would you bring to Venice / Lake Como?

    There is something magical about the camera's capabilities and Venice at these times - the tonal ranges suit each other nicely!
