HDX900 Glass options

[John DeLuca]

I'm finally making the transition into HD with the HDX900, but have a few questions about glass. If you could only have one lens, what would be ideal (fast, wide-angle zoom?) for 2/3" HD glass? What would be the most affordable solution without compromising image quality? I have heard of people using SLR lenses and a GG converter as a cheaper alternative to expensive 2/3"HD glass. Basically any advice is appreciated.

Thanks!

Why not wait for the HPX-500? P2, 2/3 ccd's, variable frame rates... and at a sub 20 000 price?

I was planning to record on hard disk(with the HDX900) and use the body as a deck only to archive. Either way I would appreciate advice on an affordable 2/3" glass solution.
