Description — Hasselblad 205FCC
The Hasselblad 205FCC is a film-type medium format camera built on the Hasselblad V lens mount platform. Its ISO sensitivity runs from 12 to 6400, covering an unusually wide range that accommodates everything from high-key studio setups to available-light shooting. Flash integration is handled through TTL/OTF flash metering with X-sync up to 1/90s, and the camera provides both a standard ISO hot shoe and a PC sync port for maximum compatibility with flash equipment.
Focusing is manual only, guided by a single central focusing screen. The viewfinder is interchangeable, supporting either a waist-level finder or a prism configuration depending on the photographer's preference. The metal alloy body measures 185 x 117 x 110mm and weighs 1,660g, reflecting the camera's professional-grade build.
It runs on a Lithium 2CR1/3N (PX28L) battery capable of powering the electronics through several hundred rolls. There is no image stabilization, no wireless connectivity of any kind, and no video capability — the 205FCC is a focused instrument for medium format film photography.
