To me, the most intriguing line in today's Hasselblad press release is this one:
"The CFV II 50C digital back can be paired with most Hasselblad V System cameras made from 1957 and onwards in addition to technical cameras, making it easy to combine analog and digital shooting. When combined with the 907X camera body, the photographer gains access to the entire XCD Lens range, providing autofocus and autoexposure."
That statement is pretty clear, and indicates that CFV II 50c + 907X + XCD lenses = an autofocusing 44x33 mm 50 MP FSI system that's very compact and has superb lenses.
In other words, if accurate, the 907X isn't simply a small metal frame (like the Alpa TC; for the record, I love my TC!), but actually communicates information about focusing (and aperture?) to the XCD lenses.
Is this correct?
