The "Focus on infinity" function works with the 4/21, 2.5/38 & 1.9/80 lenses.

I could only imagine using this function for astrophotography (which I don't actually do yet), and for that the 3.5/45 would be my last choice anyway.

The Hasselblad service will probably be able to explain why focus on infinity doesn't work with the 3.5/45.

Hmm...My XCD 90 only does "drive to near limit". My XCD 45P does both near and infinity limit. Sigh...

It doesn't work on my 3.5/45 either, despite firmware v0.6.0

Less insane is this. Only 10 pounds. 600mm f/5.6

There's a mirror 1000mm f/8, if you don't care about the bokeh.

Curious if any one has any experience (even second-hand experience) with either of these lenses on a modern digital camera?
I have the Pentax 67 400/4 ED-IF. It's optically fine at 100MP. It's just too heavy, so I never use it.

I tried to remap one of the buttons on the X2D to change focus to infinity. When I tried to use this function with the XCD 45mm f3.5 lens it told me the lens doesn't support this feature. So curious which lens(es) support it?

Good news! I had their 17mm/4 on the GFX and was excellent. The 15mm shift was soft, but I think they have since updated its design.

We'll see...
