Once in a blue moon you get the chance to mix MF systems and my Contax 645 always gave you the option of the old Zeiss Hasselblad lenses. I have always had a love affair with Mamiya 645's 145mm Soft Focus lens as it's so much more versatile (and complex!) than the discs used in 6x7 or 6x8 lenses. But I never thought to be able to mount it onto a C645 until I discovered Zork and their adapter. Brilliant!

Not only that but it also lets me get round the problems of finding and affording the C645 Bellows as I can now use the Mamiya 645 Auto Bellows N (not to be confused with the poor quality one for the AF series) with their 55mm lens to give me swing/tilt/shift for macro work.
