Hasselblad's aversion to red dots

Hmm. Never bothered ... My excuse: I don't change lenses that often, and don't have any problem finding the appropriate index mark that Hasselblad put on the lens mount. ;)

Well, it's possible, but putting the dot on the side is like pre-computing a result you need often (if you change lenses), and so is efficient coding.

Heh. You're inspiring me to grab the 907x and take it on my walk. I think the 21mm has been on it for a month or so ... maybe I'll switch it to the 45mm.
There, done: took two seconds. ... ;)

45P is a lot smaller, lighter lens... Camera hangs tail down instead of lens down like with the 21mm. :D
