OPERATING
THE 2OOOFC
This
part
of the instruction manual deals
with
subjects
such
as
shutter speed
and
aperture
setting, focusing,
determining
depth-of-field, film
advance,
mirror
pro-
gram
selection,
pre-release
operation
and
intentional
double
exposure.
Using
F lenses
with the 2000FC
The
f
/stop
is
set using
the aperture
ring;
this
ring has
two knurled
projections
(36,
Fig. 30).
The ring
can be manipulated
with
the right
hand
while
the camera
is
held
in
the left-hand
grip.
The shutter
speed
is
set against the index
(29)
with
a
prong
(33)
on the shutterspeed
14
ring.
The most
common shutter
speeds
can be conveniently
set
just
using the
thumb of
your
left hand. F lenses have
shutter speeds
of
B
and
1 to I/2000 s. At
the B
setting, the shutter remains
open
as
long
as
the
release button is kept de-
pressed.
The
shutter speed ring
(25)
has
click stops
for
both engraved and
inter-
mediate
speeds. Thus,
you
can
set the
shu,tter at ll250s, l/375
s,
1/500,s, 1/750 s
etc.
No intermediate
rspeed
can
,be
set
between
I
and
B or between
B and C.
(Intermediate
speeds
can not
be
set on
the shutters of C
lenses).
The 2000FC shutter speed
ring
(25)
can
be
locked to
prevent
accidental
displace-
ment.
The
ring is locked using the
lever
(38).
The
lever
pointer
should
point
to
L
(:locked),
Fig. 31.
The
shutter and
diaphragm
controls
(24
and
25),
which
normally
operate
indepen-
dently, can be
cross-coupled
by
pressing
the cross-coupling button
(20).
With
the
shutter
and
diaphragm
interlinked in
this
manner, shutter speed/aperture combina-
tions can
be altered
with
no ch4nge
in
the
value set
on
the
exposure
value scale. The
correct exposure value
is
obtained
with
an
exposure
meter
such as the
Hasselblad
ex-
posure
meter
or the
meter
prism
finder.
Example:
With the button
(20)
for
cross-
coupling
of shutter and diaphragm de-
pressed,
change the aperture
from
f/8
to
t/ll.
This automatically changes the shut-
ter speed
from
e.g. l/250 s to
l/ 125
s.
(Cross-coupling
is
not
possible
when
an
extension
tube
or
bellows extension is
used.)
