No purpose. There isn't a body shutter on any h body. So even if you could mount and focus to infinity you couldn't take a picture in a practical way.

No, but the V-series lenses that fit on it do...

Brian

if such an adapter would exist it would not focus to infinity !

The Hasselblad H has 61,63mm, the Mamiya 645 has 63,3 mm, the Hasselblad V has 74,9 mm. A Leica S2 has only 53mm
An adapter from H to M645 could be a max of 1,57mm thick which is technically not possible.

for more infos on possible combinations see here:
