ok people, nothing to see here just move along; just a dead elf! If you don't know what the bellows can do for you ask what you can do for the bellows; send the lot to me for a fistfull of $. Grand Rapids or Jersey City.

And cropping film copying.

However you should use lenses desiged for that scale, otherwise you will run beyond limits of image quality.

whats killing me is I leave for Hawaii on Sunday and I have no room for the Mamiya:angel:
One body + one lens. I took my Rolleiflex SLX and massive 40mm lens to Hawaii on my honeymoon. I found a travel bag that just fit. The fit was so close I had to take the prism off and use the waist level finder.
In retrospect I'm glad I did. Don't know if I ever will be back to Hawaii but having those beautiful 6x6 negatives and 6x6 Transparencies from the trip was well worth the effort.

OK to make the envy more deeper; what $ did you pay?
1100.00 for all and the condition is excellent and I mean pristine. The guy i bought it from in paid 6k in 2001 from pro photographer he also has everything for darkroom setup if I ever needed it.

That's one h*** of a bargain! It's going to take you quite a while just to get through the "kit" functionally, but what flexibility! Enjoy!
