I'm curious about this myself because I want a 55mm lens for my 907.

For me, 55mm is a fantastic focal length for the 33x44mm sensor. I used an old manual focus on my old 645D. The 45's are a little wide for a lot of my taste and the 65 is nice too, but the 3:4 format isn't quite the same as 2:3. The 55mm feels to afford a bit more room top to bottom, I guess in a way that an 80mm on a 501cm felt closer to something like 45mm in 35mm film. Can't compare directly but that 55mm had a great FOV for general purpose stuff. In fact, if hasselblad made a 55mm I'd get it right away.

  I decided to return the adaptor due to the E Shutter on the X1D2   Cant use Flash with E shutter so I decided against it
