Unacceptable comparison to anything that is at all user friendly. ( pick one or more... Canon DSLR with Canon lenses, Leica DMR with Leica Lenses, ditto Nikon, any other system camera.... ). ( I am pretty much consistent with my assessment that no-auto Iris is a no show in my book, and also for the marketplace). The ONLY practical solution to a Hasselblad body assembly is Hasselblad lenses. If you want a digital back, you are still in the same camp.... Hasselblad lenses. Period. If you want something to experiment with, argue away..... but it is pretty meaningless from a usability standpoint. Which is where I thought this discussion was moving towards......Use.
