 Hasselblad H1 - photo.net
Hasselblad conceived the H1 camera system and lenses and was responsible for their design, including the specification of the lenses.
Hasselblad easily could have done it but decided to go the other way maybe because they want people to buy the H1 on top of their existing system instead of switching to a new system that does it all and dump the old one.
I bought this for having an hasselblad, but the way for buyng a digital back and, after having cropped the frame, to have the same sensor size of a camera which cost a half or a third part of the h1,this way is a nonsense.

In line with Hasselblad's historical commitment to compatibility, existing H1 and H1D cameras can be upgraded to H2 specification.
With many H series owners already owning Hasselblad C/CF series lenses together with the many sources of rental and used equipment available worldwide, the H system immediately becomes more comprehensive and better prepared to take on a much wider variety of assignments and applications.
All C type lenses are suitable for use with the CF adaptor, making this a truly useful accessory and an almost essential item for professional photographers who need occasional access to specific lenses not used in their everyday work.

 Shutterbug: The Hasselblad 203FE Revisited
While considered heresy by many Hasselblad devotees at the time, the focal plane cameras and their truly excellent Zeiss lenses have become a familiar site in the studios of top pros all over the globe.
Even many wedding and portrait guys who previously thought that the unlimited flash sync of a leaf shutter was required for their work found that the slick handling camera and brilliantly fast lenses were too good to pass on.
While other manufacturers, even Hasselblad, continue to push the envelope of medium format ergonomics, autofocus ability, and exposure automation, well designed and bulletproof cameras like the 203FE will continue to populate the professional photography landscape for decades to come.

Since the day that Victor Hasselblad first set out, not to reproduce a fallen German spy camera, but to improve upon it, we have consistently endeavored to develop and advance the field of photography.
Victor Hasselblad wanted nothing more than to make the finest cameras ever produced, to provide the tools that would help photographers capture their vision and share it with others.
Whether it regards our collaboration with the Hasselblad foundation, our product development, our ongoing relationships with the world’s finest photographers, or just the attitude that still pervades the shop floor and corridors of our Swedish headquarters, everything we do is a reflection upon our company’s history and the man who founded it.

In order to use tilt/shift(t/s) effectively, you need to have a fairly large viewfinder, and I doubt the hasselblad viewfinder is up to the task.
Hasselblad had produced some flexbodies in the past, but they were so expensive that it's not very popular.

In fact, the MF-1 film back for Hasselblad cameras is the only Polaroid back that can be used with the NEW Hasselblad PM90 metering prism or with the low profile NC-1 prism.
The heart of the MF-2 is its thin fiber optic bundle that assures that the image is transferred to the film with complete sharpness and fidelity.
Note: Although the MF-2 is not compatible with the new Hasselblad PM90 metering prism or with the low profile NC-1 prism, NPC’s MF-1 film back does support these models.

 Hasselblad H1
With the exception of the Hasselblad XPan, which is designed and built by Fuji and marketed by Hasselblad everywhere in the world except Japan (more on this in a while), two things have defined Hasselblad and its products: the cameras are designed primarily for 2 ¼ square format and feature manual focus.
Earlier Hasselblads had a small crescent-shaped window that indicated by showing red whether film was loaded or not, but other manufacturers (Rollei for example) have designs that prevent such accidents, and I’m surprised that Hasselblad hasn’t addressed this in their new design.
The story I heard was the same — that Hasselblad is choosing to only work with certain back manufacturers and that the H1’s databus specification is not being made generally available.

Using a Hasselblad 500 EL Using a 500 EL series camera is practically the same as a 500 series, the only difference is that you don't have to wind the film yourself.
In the Hasselblad 500 series, the camera body is just the body, it provides very little functionality other than a mirror and film crank.
