For sale is my beloved Mamiya 6 medium format camera, including all 3 lenses. If you're looking for the ideal compact 6x6 film camera for travel, this is it.
Includes:
Mamiya 6 body: Mint condition. Note that this is the good Mamiya 6, not the goofy Mamiya 6MF with all the weird frame lines in the finder. In this condition goes for $1500 at KEH
50mm f/4: Mint. Goes for around $900 in this condition
75mm f/3.5: Mint. Goes for around $500 in this condition.
150mm f/4.5: Mint. Goes for around $300 in this condition.
That's about $3200 worth of kit that I'll sell for $2300 OBO
Ken Rockwell calls this "the world's most perfect camera system" because of the amazing lenses and compact body. The lenses retract a bit into the body, making for a super compact 6x6 camera system. Fantastic for travel and landscape photography. See his write-up here: http://www.kenrockwell.com/mamiya/6.htm
FAQ:
Why am I selling it?: I had intended to move up from my Holga to this high-end system as my primary camera. As much as I wanted to, I find that my Holga still better matches my "fuzzy" vision of the photos I want to take. I'm weird, what can I say?
Are you willing to sell things individually? No.
What else comes with it? I have the lens shades for 2 of the 3 lenses plus the manual.
Are you open to offers? Sure, but honestly this is a screaming deal so no low ball offers.
Will you ship to X? I'd really prefer to keep it US Only for now. I've had problem in the past with international shipping.
FYI: I have a 100% positive rating on eBay and have sold many items there. My eBay ID is markolw I'd rather sell it to an APUG'er so I know it will be well taken care of rather than post it there.
