I think, a lot of MF are already shot without mirrors, if they have one or not. Tethered shooting was the way to go digital, before there were DSLRs. The first still camera I tried was connected by FireWire to a PowerMac and just lens and some body around a sensor, no finder whatsoever, 2MP and maybe 30-40 k$. And if one watches from time to time Phase One clips, a lot of photogs use laptops in the field, just to see more and control sharpness better.
If I see professionals working with Leaf backs and Mamiya/PhaseOne bodies, or Sinar, or Silvestri, or Alpa, whatever, I'm not quite sure how this machine fits in - but I think, in a fashion shooting, when one "only" wants huge color depth and resolution (*) for big covers, this Hasselblad will be the lightest handheld MF around and a pleasure to use.
(*) and not fast fps, high ISO, quick AF, because most of the time models can keep their poses.
