Is it possible to get a convertion ring to fitt "1000F" lens on 2000F body ?
I just got a 250mm + 1000F kit and noticed that the iner lens is the same as today lens (except multi coating) and I'm interested to try it on CFV digital back.
 
Well no answer for one month...
Now I succed to put the CFV on a broken 1000F with broken shutter. I tried to use pine hole mode with 1 sec exposure but the result was very bad: magenta colors ans so.
 
Hi Blowupster,

Hasselblad never made a lens adapter that I am aware for using lenses from 1600F/1000F on 2000 or later 200 series cameras. The change from the previous generation took place in 1957 with the introduction of the 500C and leaf shutter lenses. Hasselblad returned to focal plane cameras in 1977 with the introduction of the 2000FC.

I have uploaded a datasheet for the original CFV. Page 4 shows the camera connectivity chart. The 1600F and 1000F are not included.

Well, as I have a CFV-39 and differents bodies here, I tried somme settings:

CFV & my 2000FC/M setted in 500C mode works and allows you to take fictures without wire in C or F mode. Some times I get magenta pictures.
As I have my 30mm in C, and use the FE 110mm lens, it's far better than my converted 203FE.

CFV & 1000F setted in flash syncro mode (bulb flash plug) works but the 1000F must be modified: (remove 1 mm in the back of the 1000F and cut the hammer pin that inform the old film back that the body is loaded.
Now I have to repair my 1000F as the rubicon broke last week. :)
I expected to take CFV+ 1000F + 60mm+135mm for the Kyoto Matsuri next week…humm.
Here a picture of an old Kodak camera taken with a 1000F 250mm/5.6 and CFV-39

The problem that i see is the 110mm FE has no central shutter and the recommended connection is utilize the one shot cable #HA-001 by Kapturegroup.com for correct synchronization between digital magazine and camera body.

Information related to the 2000 series is on page 2 of the document.
