Key Features — Hasselblad 2000FC
Titanium Focal Plane Shutter: The electronically controlled titanium shutter enables shutter speeds up to 1/2000s and allows use of any V-System lens regardless of whether it has a built-in leaf shutter.
Hasselblad V Mount: Compatible with the full range of Hasselblad V-System lenses, including the highly regarded Zeiss-designed optics spanning wide-angle to telephoto focal lengths.
Interchangeable Film Backs: Accepts standard Hasselblad V-System film magazines, allowing mid-roll film changes or switching between film stocks without wasting exposures.
Interchangeable Viewfinder: Supports both waist-level and prism finders, letting photographers adapt their working style to portrait, studio, or field shooting situations.
6x6cm Medium Format Frame: Produces a square 56x56mm negative on 120 or 220 film, delivering significantly more detail and tonal depth than 35mm film.
Manual Focus Only: All focusing is performed manually via the lens, encouraging a deliberate, methodical shooting approach suited to studio and landscape work.

Description — Hasselblad 2000FC
The Hasselblad 2000FC is a medium format film camera built on the Hasselblad V lens mount, integrating seamlessly into the V-System. The body is constructed from metal, and the focal plane shutter is made from titanium — a design detail that speaks to the engineering investment in this camera's shutter mechanism. The shutter is electronic and powered by a 6V battery (PX28 or equivalent).
For flash photography, the camera provides a PC sync socket with X-sync at 1/90s. The viewfinder system is interchangeable, supporting both waist-level and prism configurations, giving photographers options for how they frame and compose their shots. Focusing is manual only — there is no autofocus system.
The body measures approximately 180 x 114 x 107mm and weighs 1,560g. There is no weather sealing, no image stabilization, and no wireless connectivity of any kind. Film backs handle media storage in place of conventional cards, consistent with the camera's film-based nature.
