When I get an idea stuck in my head... it just won't quit.

 

New thought (which hit me like a diamond bullet this AM).

 

Buy a broken 500CM body (~30-40 bucks).

Buy a wide angle large format lens 

Figure out the proper sensor to lens distance.

CUT hasselblad body to proper length - removing guts, mirror etc. 

Attach large format lens to front (method to be determined)

Figure out focusing mechanism..

Possible use bellows system in 2d version..

 

I already found a dead 500cm I can dismantle.

Essentially I am making an Alpa TC.
 

I want ultrawide, 35mm or less for coverage of the CFV's 4x4 sensor.

Oh mighty HUG, what lens woulf do the trick at maximum bang for the buck?
