It seems that X-Pan lenses which are damaged and sold for parts/repair don't turn up that often. Any ideas about alternative sources would be welcome.

You could look on Ebay for adapters that allow mounting of other lenses to the Xpan. Those would have an Xpan mount at the back end. I use a Nikon F - Xpan adapter to mount a Voigtlander 15mm Heliar in Nikon mount on my Xpan.
Good luck with your project.

A Hasselblad service centre could order you that?

Thanks but I'm not, at present anyway, prepared to pay the high prices, as I would be buying a tube and front mount of no value to me when I already have the tube and front mount required.

Thanks. I admit I hadn't considered that. I might give it a go but I suspect that might be the most expensive option.A Hasselblad service centre could order you that?

What are you trying to put on the XPan? As a person who had a 50/2 Leica R converted to XPan RF cam compatible (more or less, less for 8 ft and closer), inquiring mind wants to know!
