The 2000FC is a medium format system camera released by Swedish manufacture Hasselblad in 1977.

The Hasselblad 500 C cameras are very well made, but depending on the type of photography the leaf shutter system have advantages as well as limitations. It was limited to 1/500 sec. which made non-studio type photography more difficult.

This camera represents Hasselblads return to manufacturing focal-plane shutter based cameras. Hasselblad had not manufactured a focal plane system in over 20 years. It is compatible with F series lenses (lenses without shutters)or C series lenses (lenses with built-in leaf shutters). The body's electronic shutter has speeds of 1 to 1/2000 of a second. Using the shutters in C lens will only allow the maxium speed of 1/500 of a sec. Flash synchronisation is at 1/90 of a sec. when using F lenses, but for C type leaf shutter lenses supporting all speeds of flash sync.

The 2000FC/M released in 1981 is almost the same but has extra protection for the shutter when the magazine back is removed.
