For Sale FS: Mamiya 80mm (TLR)

[Michel Hardy-Vallée]

Alright, so today's programme is a little closet cleaning.

Our main event is a C330 body with 80mm f/2.8 (it has a blue dot, but whatever).

It has the following two issues (caveat emptor!):

1. There is something with film transport, I'm not exactly sure what. I have had occasional (not constant) uneven frame spacing, and even once frame skipping. You need to have this repaired.
2. The depth-of-field sliding window mechanism does not work, which means that you won't see the correct distance on the red focusing scales (55mm, 65mm, 80mm). The black scales are aligned with the edge of the body, so they're not at issue here. This is a usability issue, but not a functional one.

Other than that, this camera has been in use since I bought it in the late 2000s, and the film transport issue is recent. I'm suspecting worn gears.



Next, we have a lovely old-fashioned thin strap that holds with two metal studs. The weight of the camera will dig into your shoulder or your neck after prolonged use for that lovely old-timey pain.


You may want to use the leather case as well to give your kit some 1970s style, à la Mannix?


And to conclude in beauty, I present you these two Mamiya grips (BOTH SOLD)

1. A left hand grip with cold shoe to hold your hot flashes
2. A pistol grip to fight crime, or alternatively to use with a prism (not sold here).
