I have recently retired from 25 years of Professional photography.  I specialized in wedding photography, but also did portraits, groups, teams, etc. with this camera   It is far superior in photo quality to 35mm format, yet much easier to carry while shooting a wedding than a 6×7 format camera.  It’s a little larger than a Hasselblad and the negative size is the rectangular version of what a Hasselblad negative would be (6×6). Everything is in excellent condition, and I will offer my service to help you with any equipment usage, via email.

Camera is a MEDIUM FORMAT, Mamiya 645AF, with an 80mm (Standard) F2.8 Lens. It has Auto Focus, with Auto Film Loading, Motor Drive Film Advance, Exposure choices of Program, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, Manual, and Flash Sync., choice of Spot Metering, Average Metering or Average/Spot Auto Switching Exposure Metering, removable film back and more.  The film holders will accommodate 120 or 220 roll size, and I am including a second Film Holder with light tight box. Also, a Skylight Filter, Polarizer and 81A Warming Filter.  The Manual is also included, and it will be shipped in the original box with Styrofoam. (Original price for camera and extra back, $4,000; filters, $50)

Stroboframe  Swivel Bracket, with top mounting for flash. (Original price-$150

Sunpak A522 Thyrister Flash Unit, with THREE CL-2 Nicad Battery Clusters and QBC-5 Quick Charger. (I will include an extra A522 Flash Unit that can be used only as a “back-up”, as the unit doesn’t always flash-possible thyrister wearing out) (Original price-$300

Lindahl Specialties Bellows Filter Mount for front of the camera, with a box holding 4 glass filters (3 Softeners and a 4-pt Star) (Original price for all – $200)

I also have additional Professional quality equipment, which is NOT included in this package, but could be purchased.  Because of bulkiness and weight, these items would be difficult to ship, but could be picked up if you live close enough.  Photos could be provided if you are interested.  The items are:

 *  Bogen Manfrotto Tripod-Excellent weight and durability to support the Medium format camera – $75

 *  Steel Case (NOT Haliburton) – Top unfolds to large compartments. Holds 645 camera, 2 flash units, film, meter and lots of room for more, even additional 35 mm camera. This case has been well used, but still has considerable life remaining. – $40

 *  2 Nylon Camera Cases – One is heavy duty and will hold the camera and some accessories. The other is light-weight and will hold Stroboframe Bracket, Filters, Vignettes, Masks, Film and more light accessories – $30

*  Fold-up, Collapsing Dolly – Chrome steel tubing.  I have hauled the steel case and two bags on it.  Great for lugging the equipment without strain!!  – $50

  *  I also have a complete Darkroom set up, if you’re REALLY wanting to get involved.  Color and B/W Enlarger, with Nikon lens, and holders for 35mm film, 645 film, and 35mm slides.  This can’t be shipped safely, will need to be picked up, and there is a LOT of equipment with this set up.  – $150
