Description from the seller

The Mamiya RB67 is one of the most iconic and respected medium format cameras in the history of professional photography. Produced by the Japanese company Mamiya starting in the 1970s, it became famous for its extraordinary image quality, extremely robust build, and highly versatile modular system. The name “RB” stands for “Rotating Back,” a reference to the famous rotating back that allows a quick switch from landscape to portrait format without having to rotate the entire camera.

The RB67 uses 120 or 220 medium format film and produces large negatives capable of delivering a level of detail, tonal depth, and overall photographic quality far superior to classic 35 mm. The body is large, heavy, and very imposing, a feature that makes it instantly recognizable and particularly beloved in professional photo studios.
The viewfinder, as can be seen in the photos, has missing parts. The shutter is missing.

Fully mechanical in its main versions, the Mamiya RB67 requires a slow, precise approach to photography. Every stage of the shot, from focusing to triggering the shutter, happens manually, offering a very technical and engaging photographic experience. The integrated bellows also allow for extremely accurate focusing, very useful for portraits, still life, and macro photography.
