Windows Phone App only for Windows Phone 7?

Is it possible to make a Windows Phone App target only the Windows Phone 7 platform?

I already have the Windows Phone 8 version of the app out, and changed a few things to release for Windows Phone 7 (like resolutions and limitations etc) but when I'm adding it to the marketplace it always has "Supported OS: Windows Phone 7 & 8" and doesn't allow me to change it.

Thanks.

I don't think that is possible, if you upload a 7.5 app it can run on both WP7 og WP8 devices. If you also have an WP8 version of your app, the user with WP8 devices only get the 8 app and not the 7.5 app. Also if the user on WP8 device first download a WP7.5 version of your app, and you later uploads a WP8 version, the WP8 devices will be updated with the WP8 version when ready on the store!
