Seriously all I want is a 5 point AF system. Not even that just 3 spread out enough

I am not concerned at all.. this proves that the number of H1/H2 Cameras out there is huge compared to what Hasselblad is able to deliver/build for immediate replacement..this is what I read on the Hasseblad H4X website this morning (my red highlight):
"Can I buy the new H4X body without a trade in?
The new H4X camera is designed to upgrade the functionality of the current H1, H2 and H2F camera users only. To exchange the new camera it is required that the old H1/H2/H2F camera is returned to Hasselblad. It will not be possible to buy this camera, but only trade-in. If you are an H3D customer, you can not exchange that camera for a new H4X trade-in camera."
:shocked: there goes the neighborhood...
Why? How about long exposures? [PhaseOne backs other than the Dalsa-chipped ones]. Of course you may never shoot like that, but lots of folks do.So why now mount a Phase back on my Hasselblad camera? I don't think that makes sense finally
Someone please explain the logic of this to me. This was a perfect opportunity to actually increase the number of Hasselblad users, drawing in afficionados of PhaseOne, Sinar, Leaf or film backs, attracted by a new no-restrictions camera and lenses package."It will not be possible to buy this camera, but only trade-in".
Errr...you've lost me. I know the quote, but I can't see how you are applying it in this context. Who is the lucky possessor of the one eye?please explain the logic of this to me

The H system is designed and built in Sweden by Swedes.Still just another Japanese, 645 camera which will never produce a wonderful square image. The Hy6 is still the best medium format solution out there, just my 2 cents.
+1The upgrade for me from H3 to a H4X TF system is not available. It is to a H2 phase user plus others. Even though I have no issues with the H3 it still feels that I am not a valued client of Hasselblad anymore. My upgrade path was to the H4D50. Its on hold

Yes you can use your HV90X. The 90xII had an upgraded metering system which is more responsive to meter in lower light levels.Foes anyone know whether the HV90X viewfinder can be used with the H4X? If yes, what is the limitation?
The Hasselblad USA shows only 2 options HV90X-II or HVD90X.
What is the difference between the HV90X-II and HV90X?
Thank you
