Anybody want to take bets on whether Hasselblad made the same mistake Sony made with the E mount and this mount and these lenses only cover the 3.3x4.4 sensor and will barely work if at all in the future when it becomes affordable to make 6x4.5 sensors?


Well, given that the sensor is barely visible behind the mount, I\'d say they\'ve committed to this size and nothing larger.

Since mediumformat starts at 6x4.5 this would be some sort of supersized fullframe. Just like the latest Pentax...


That is normally considered the smallest medium format film size. No medium format cameras have a digital sensor that large. I believe the largest digital sensor for a medium format camera is the Phase One and the like with a sensor size of 40.4 X 53.9mm. The sensor size of the Hasselblad is the same size as the Pentax 645D with a sensor size of 33 X 44mm.

Rich

WADR, 40.4 etc is merely the trimed 4.5 etc... 33x44 is not much more than half of the traditional MF minimum and should thus not be considered as such. Sorry.
