[HUG] Re: H series lens coverage for a 6x6 H

Hasselblad will never adept their H series to 6X6 format.
It can't be done with existing lenses.
645 is a completely different concept.

6X6 requires a ground up new design that is of no interest to makers of digital equipment that only need a much smaller CCD to record images.

Subject: [HUG] H series lens coverage for a 6x6 H


While I'm quite happy with my 500CM and have zero interest in the non-square H system at present, I might be interested should Hasselblad update their H series film body with a 6x6 version though.

I was wondering, if their current lenses would in theory work on 6x6 camera. In design terms, what would be the obstacles to a 6x6 H?

And would the list be keen on such a body?
