AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Relive the magic of analog photography with a Mamiya 645 1000s: an icon of medium format that defined an era.
This camera is not just a tool: it’s a bridge to a time when every shot was thought out, anticipated, desired. An era in which the photographer leaned over the waist-level viewfinder, breathed slowly, and let the light sketch its story on the film.
The Mamiya 645 1000s is a solid, precise machine built to last. Its reliable shutter, flawless mechanics, and the rendering of medium format deliver images with a unique character: sharpness, depth, three-dimensionality that no digital sensor can truly imitate.
The kit includes the waist-level finder, beloved by those seeking a pure photographic experience, and a rare Mamiya-Sekor 60mm lens, perfect for landscapes, environmental portraits, and authentic-feeling reportage. A bright, sharp lens with a character that only glass from the golden years can offer.
This camera is ideal for:
• those who want to rediscover the pleasure of film,
• lovers of analog medium format,
• collectors of iconic photography tools,
• those looking for an object that is not just to display, but to live.
Each shot with this Mamiya is a return to the “good old days,” when photography was a rite, not a race.
If you’re seeking an authentic, thrilling, timeless experience, this is the perfect companion.

Waist-level finder
• Excellent condition: opening/closing mechanism perfect.

Mamiya-Sekor C 60mm lens
• Optical condition: excellent.
o Lenses free of scratches, fungus, haze or significant dust.
o Coatings intact.
• Mechanical:
o Smooth, even focusing ring.
o Snappy aperture, clean blades without oil.
• Rendering:
o Ideal field of view for reportage, landscapes, and environmental portraiture.
o High sharpness and the characteristic look of Mamiya glass, with very pleasing micro-contrast.

The kit also includes

Auto Extension Ring for the Mamiya M645 system.
These accessories are essential for macro photography, as they allow you to reduce the minimum focusing distance of the lens, enabling extremely close-up shots.

Main Features
Function: Acts as a spacer between the body and the lens. By moving the optic away from the film plane (or sensor), it increases subject magnification.
Compatibility: Specifically designed for Mamiya 645 series cameras (such as the M645, 645 Super, 645 Pro and Pro TL) and their manual-focus lenses.
Automation: Being an “Auto” model, it maintains mechanical linkage for automatic aperture, allowing you to compose at wide open and close the aperture only at shutter release.

Practical Use
Ideal for photographing small details, flowers, or insects. etc.
