HASSELBLAD © © TT e\2000Fc 2000C with F lens Hasselblad 2000FC The Hasselblad 2000FC is a 2 1/4%2 1/4 single-tens reflex camera jescuring lens, ‘mogatine, viewfinder and focusing screen interchangeability. Its unique design gives you a choice of shutter options, focal plane or leaf, depending on your requirements The 2000" in the decignation 2000EC stands for the festest shutter speed, 1/2000 s, the ‘F” stands for focal plane shutter and the °C" stands for the (Synchro-) ‘Compur leaf shutter. So you can work with the camera’s own focal plane shutter (or with the leaf shutter built ito lenses made Jor the Hassetblad SOC, 500C/M, ‘SODEL and SOOEL/M since 1957. Lenses especially designed for the Hasselblad 2000EC will be referred 10 a: F lenses in this instruction manual. Lenses with Synchro-Compur leaf shutters will be referred to az lenses. F lenses, which have no built-in shutter, can only be used with the camera's focal lane sitter. But when a C lens is attached to the Hasselblad 2000FC, you can teicher use the camera's focal plane shutter or the teaf shutter inthe lens The focal plane shutter serves as a blind when the leaf shutter is the shutter of ‘chotee. The leaf shutter provides the advantage of flash synehrontzation at all shutter speeds down 10 1/500 s. The Hasselblad 2000FC has an electronically timed focal plane shutter with X synchronization at 1/90 s and slower. Electronic shutter timing makes for ‘extremely accurate shutter operation. A choice of mirror programs is another fearure of the Hasselblad 2000FC. The photog- rapher can select a program producing instant mirror return or @ program in which the mirror remains in the raised position until the {lm Is advanced after expasure. The mirror can even be locked in the raised position jor special purpose applications. The procedure for making intentional multiple exposures on the same frame has also been greatly simplified in the Hasselblad 2000F This manual will explain camera operation and describe some of the way’ to utilize the camera's many advanced features. Iris always advisable to thoroughly study a new or unfamiliar camera's instruction ‘manual before the camera's put to use.
