Hallo everybody,
during last 2 months I studied and searched some hasselblad V system bargains to build a MF gear. The problem was the same for each part I'm looked for: price too high.
During this search, I found a Mamiya medium format gear and after some internet studying days, I bought it.

Mamiya M645 1000S (with a lot of accessories) with Mamiya Sekor C 55/2.8, 80/2.8 and 210/4 (all 3 lenses are new). Total price: 280€ (390$/245£).

And now, I must start with tank and enlarger action Very Happy

Congratulations - that's a fine camera and as you've seen has the obvious advantage of lots of bits being pretty commonly available and at reasonable prices. I was truly enticed by the kit you got, but for some reason bought a P645 instead, right before the digital came out, and as a result lens prices went through the roof!

Thank you guys.
Do you have some tips about the M645?

Congrats on your M645!

I also jumped back into MF after almost a 20 year hiatus, but I went the Bronica ETR-Si route. Equivalent outfits, methinks.

So, once you've had a chance to run a few rolls through your new system, be sure to come back here and post some pics.

Congrats, surely a good move. I went the Blad route though.

Unfortunately I'll be waiting it till mid of may Evil or Very Mad
I don't have a spot lightmeter yet; it's a good choice use my spotmatic with super takumar 105/2.8 like a lightmeter Question
