Answer 1

In your admin.py

class ABCAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    fields = [.....]  # here comes the fields open to all users

    def change_view(self, request, object_id, extra_context=None):  # override default admin change behaviour
        if request.user in gruop2:  # an example 
            self.fields.append('field2')  # add field 2 to your `fields` 
            self.fields.append('field3')  # add field 3 to your `fields`

You can use the docs to see what is available. Above is an example taken from one of my usages. You may also need to define change_view and add_view too.
