Mamiya C220 Professional - Twin-Lens Reflex, with 80mm f/2.8 lens, 135mm f/4.5 lens & Mamiya Paramender - $435 plus shipping (continental US only)

Camera body is in very good condition. Focusing is smooth. Viewing hood is smooth.

Both lenses are in very good condition. Shutter and aperture operate smoothly. Glass is very good. Shutter "sounds" accurate, though I have not had it calibrated.

The Paramender is necessary to correct for parallax for close-up shots. It shows signs of light use, but operates smoothly & accurately

Payment via PayPal only. 14-day return (in same condition as you received it). You pay for return shipping.

Interesting.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that this is a Mamiya C220.
I believe that Mamiyaflex refers only to the much earlier fixed lens models "A" and "B" that were made between 1948 and 1956.
The C220 is much more recent - one of the C series models, which denotes interchangeable lenses.
Feel free to edit your listing. If you do, I'll delete this post, if appropriate.

The 80mm lens is considered a "normal" focal length, not a wide-angle lens for the 6X6 format.
Nice outfit.
Good luck with the sale.

Any chance we can see the photos in color?

After I shot the camera and accessories, I thought the green vegetation in the background was distracting, so I converted the photos to black & white. Since the camera and accessories are black and silver, it made them stand out better against the distracting background. Do you believe there's some information missing in the black & white photos?

yes some folks (its not me, i promise ) are obsessive about collecting tiny blue dots that occur on the shutter cocking lever

Here are color images of the camera. Hope these address your concerns.
Thank you for your interest,
