a) you may want to post in a different sub-forum dedicated to either DOF adaptors or the HVX200.

b) that being said, I will help as much as I can.
24mm would be good if it is full-frame wide angle. I would suggest a Nikon 24 f2.8. such a lens can be found here:

That site (KEH.com) is a fantastic site for old lenses and stuff.

I have had good results shooting with this lens. Its wide and the zoom helps if you are doing any run & gun stuff.

I have friends that have shot with the canon 17-55mm 2.8 and liked it
