    Hasselblad 2000cf/m w/ CFV II 50c back

    I have determined that this two stop under exposure issue is due to the shutter not admitting the amount of light that would be expected based upon the marked shutter speed selected. A selected shutter speed, for instance, of 1/500 actually appears to deliver an amount of light equal to a...

    Hasselblad 2000cf/m w/ CFV II 50c back

    Sync cables are not required with this back in either 500 or 2000 mode on the listed bodies. A couple of other modes also. A 200 series body also does not require a sync cable and with the CFV II 50c does not require the add-on circuit board. I'm sorry, I don't understand your comment, you...

    Do you set the back for 2000 or for 500?

    Hasselblad 2000cf/m w/ CFV II 50c back

    OK, and the issue in which I am particularly interested: I've been using the CFV II 50c with my 503cw and CB lenses for about a year. It's completely plug and play. Yesterday I got an offer I couldn't refuse on a pristine 2000 fc/m. Not a mark on either shutter curtain, pristine cosmetics...

    203fe and CFV- II 50c

    Hasselblad Sweden says yes, there is limited service available just no parts. So something like a CLA or adjustment to focus accuracy would be available but no parts replacement. They also said they only have one guy who knows how to do this. Hasselblad USA says no, and Hasselblad USA says...

    Hasselblad Repair Tech David Odess has passed away...

    This makes me very sad. Even more so because I had just spoken with him a couple of months ago. He had mentioned that he was reducing his turn around time due to recovering from cancer treatment. I had had taken his comments to mean he was doing well but experiencing the normal lack of energy...

    Hasselblad viewfinder diopters

    I used one of these finders and found that the sharpest image of the focusing screen lines was when it was adjusted to a -1 diopter. Does that imply that I should also purchase a -1 diopter lens for my late version waist level finder? Additionally, I'm a bit curious here because I noticed in...

    Light corrosion inside Hasselblad mirror box

    Does that look like enough corrosion to pass on a good price ?

    Hasselblad 2000fa winding

    Thanks to all who replied. I've got one that cosmetically is in pristine condition, but the shutter speeds above 125 get progressively slower. A 1/2000 it's off about a stop and a half. Both shutter curtains are very good. Focus with the original version of the split image screen and a PM-90...

    Hasselblad 2000fa winding

    And after the click at the end the wind crank does not turn further. Is that correct? And one other question please. With the back removed, if you move the lever on t he right side of the body that pre-releases (locks up) the mirror, does the magazine pin on the lower right corner of the body...

    Hasselblad 2000fa winding

    So your experience is exactly the OPPOSITE of mine? Yours gets smoother as it nears the end of the full turn? And does not make a fairly loud click or snap at the very end?

    Hasselblad 2000fa winding

    My only experience has been with focal plane shutter Hasselblads with the various CFV digital backs. The electronic body 200/2000 cameras are still a bit of a mystery for me. Unlike the 500's I've used, my 2000fa makes a distinct "click" noise at the very end of the winding rotation. Not a...

    Have to Sell 1 Camera: Any Suggestions to which one to keep

    After having responded previously something else occurred to me. Unless you are selling one system to generate cash to offset an expense, there's actually a pretty good argument for not selling anything at all. You don't NEED a camera to begin with, as is the case for most all of us, so the...

    Have to Sell 1 Camera: Any Suggestions to which one to keep

    I am also 76. I quite enjoyed my X1D2 and regret selling it. I did keep the XCD 90, 65, and 45 lenses which I use with my 907x. My wife and I also have a D850 each and I'm currently shopping for a Hasselblad 203 to use with the CFV II 50c. I've never owned the SL2, although I have enjoyed a...
