just a quick question. i plan on shooting a short soon that for the most part takes place in a small bathroom that would def require wide lens. the hmc has wide stock, but i would like to shoot with my sgpro rig. now i have a 28mm nikon. wondering if it would be better to use the rig or if i would get a better wide using a century wide lens and scrap the rig? sorry if i dont make sense, im at work on my cell phone as i type this :)

adding a wide converter to the already wide hmc will have a definite "wide" look. may make it look more like video and less like film. personally i would go with the 28mm and make it work...

If you can get a hold of a Nikon 17-35mm f2.8d it will knock your socks off as a wide angle lens on your adapter.

Cheers,
