Since 1975, when Mamiya introduced their first 6x4.5 film format camera, it set the standard for quality, value, versatility, efficiency and simplicity. The Mamiya 645 Pro camera is a lightweight, user-friendly, full-system medium format SLR offering a complete line of components and accessories including twenty-one lenses (plus a 2x teleconverter), four interchangeable backs (including a Polaroid Pack Film Holder), four viewfinders (both metered and non-metered), diopters, two types of power drive grips, five interchangeable focusing screens, a bellows system for close-up photography and a wireless remote control system.
