If you use E lenses (cfe or FE) in D mode, you have the electronic interlock as well.
I explained how to use C lenses on 202 for crazy poeple (you need the mecanical delay struff !), but no ! you can't realy use C lenses on 202 !
I used 202 for years, very happy with it, and you cann get one for half price of an 203FE.
Anyway I wait my "new" digital modified 203FE baught last week and still at the post office.

I have a black 2000CF/M too, a great camera as well.
By the way I use the winder too. It works great for portrait time. Not for the speed (a frame per sec.) but to be able to rewind without loosing the focussing.
With the 203 and removable winder at home, it will be possible to sell:
my ELD ELX Ci and probably the 2000FC/M
The spare 202FA will be the lonly one to justify my 3 "E" backs...until a got a CFV !

What is mechanical delay struff???
 
On C lens you have a mecanical 10 seconds delai stuff you can use to be taken on the picture.
If you put this mecanical delay stuff and settup "B" on the 202FA and then push the trigger buton more than 10 secondes, then you use the central shutter on a 202FA.
Of course the flash works in X mode only, not in M mode and ....


No it's not a joke, it works like this.:z04_auslachen:
 
My compliments for your persistence to operate C series lenses with a 202FA body.
For me this is all too much trouble.
I rather use another body than go through this procedure.

It does sound a bit painful, I agree. But in a pinch it works so...

I see the light
 
Its amazing. There are 21 different SLR cameras in the Hasselblad V-system since 1957. 20 of them can utilize the central shutter. And here are the bravehearts who pick the one camera that can't and try to make it work.
