Mamiya RB67 Professional + Mamiya-Sekor 127mm f/3.8 Lens – Fully Working Analogue camera

■Description A legendary Mamiya RB67 Professional medium-format camera, complete with its original Mamiya-Sekor 127mm f/3.8 lens (No. 51562). This model represents the pinnacle of mechanical precision and professional craftsmanship from Japan’s golden era of analog photography. Introduced in the early 1970s, the RB67 became the definitive studio camera for portrait and fashion photographers worldwide. Its modular design, 6×7 negative format, and rotating film back made it a revolutionary tool—still admired today for its exceptional sharpness and timeless build quality. This particular set has been carefully preserved and remains in excellent cosmetic and operational condition, ready for both professional use and display. ■Technical Details Brand: Mamiya Japan Model: RB67 Professional Lens: Mamiya-Sekor 127mm f/3.8 (No. 51562) Film Type: 120 / 220 roll film Image Size: 6×7 cm Focusing: Bellows focusing system (rack-and-pinion precision) Shutter: Fully mechanical, Seiko leaf shutter with speeds 1–1/400s + B Viewfinder: Bright waist-level finder Film Back: Rotating back (portrait / landscape orientation switchable) Mount: Mamiya RB bayonet mount Accessories included: Lens hood Skylight filter Strap ■Condition Camera Body: Excellent condition – minimal cosmetic wear, clean leatherette, smooth focusing rack.
