Hasselblad 2000FC/M

The Hasselblad 2000FC/M is a 6x6 medium format single-lens reflex camera with a cloth focal-plane shutter, part of the 2000-series that sat alongside the leaf-shutter 500-series in Hasselblad's line-up during the early 1980s. The focal-plane design allowed use of fast F-series lenses without built-in shutters, while retaining compatibility with the C and CF leaf-shutter lenses used on the rest of the V-System. The /M suffix denotes the revised model in which the user can replace the shutter curtains themselves.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for 2000FC/M bodies have spanned roughly £220 to £3,300, with a median around £1,500 across the full sales record and more recent results clustering closer to £700–£1,100. In today's market the figure a 2000FC/M sells for depends heavily on whether it is offered as a bare body or with a prism finder, film back and lens, which explains the wide spread. Outlying high results such as the £3,125 hammer in 2022 reflect well-equipped outfits rather than what a typical body is worth on its own.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Hasselblad 2000FC/M worth at UK auction?

Recent UK saleroom hammer prices have ranged from about £220 for rough bodies to over £3,000 for complete outfits, with a median value near £1,500.

How much does a Hasselblad 2000FC/M sell for today?

Most clean body-only examples have been selling for roughly £700 to £1,100 in the last couple of years, while kits with prism, back and lens reach the higher end of the price range.

Why is the 2000FC/M price so variable?

The camera is a system body, so whether a sale includes a viewfinder, A12 film back and lens makes a large difference, and cloth-shutter condition further influences value.

How does the 2000FC/M differ from the 500C/M?

The 2000FC/M uses a focal-plane shutter in the body and can take lenses without built-in shutters, whereas the 500C/M relies on leaf shutters inside each lens.
