>>I know absolutely nothing about MF or Hasselblad, although I did hold one
once. Question - Would it be possible for Hassy to build a 35 mm body to use
existing Hassy / Zeiss lens? Could they build a back that would fit (like a
Polaroid Back) to their
existing line? Just wondering.>>
Pretty unlikely. The size of the throat and the lenses themsellves are huge
when compared to 35mm. And of course, the focal lengths don't correspond.
The normal lens for a 'blad is an 80mm, which of course is a moderate
telephoto in 35mm-land.
What you'd end up with is a camera as big as a blad with the distinct
disadvantage of using 35mm film. What would be the point?
