Hello,

Wondering if it is possible by way of a 3rd party adapter, to use Pentacon Six lenses on a Mamiya 645 1000s. Or any other Mamiya cameras? Stop down or auto?

Thank you in advance.
Jim

Not exactly what you are asking for but what about finding a Kiev 60 body in good shape and just using the lens in its "native" form on a camera that was designed for the lens?

Admittedly, finding a good Kiev 60 body might be a bit like getting lucky at the roulette wheel.

Or the Pentacon Six, or the Kiev 88, but I assume the OP got a Mamiya, und understandably would not like to get a further camera, though having to cope with lack of automatic diaphragm.
