Mamiya RZ viewfinder!

[Flavia Daniele]

Hello,

I'm looking for a ae prism for my RZ mamiya but I found only ae prism for Rz Pro... Does anybody know if it fits on my normal Rz?

Thank you so much

Here's a link to compatibility among the various RB and RZ models.

And, yes, the newer AE prism fits and works fine with the original RZ. I use it on mine.

Oh perfect!
But what about the gear? I noticed that on the RZ67 PRO there is the option AE on the side gear, but there isn't on the normal RZ. How do you set your camera?

There's a magnifier that fits on the eye level viewfinder. It enlarges the center of the view and rotates out of the way when not needed. Or can be slipped off altogether.

Do you mean the orange dot on the shutter speed dial or on the release button?

One thing. If you get it, don;t let it slip off and lose it when you're not looking. It slides up to remove it from the finder. But if you're walking around, it could pop off. Just keep that in mind.

orange dot on the dial is the AE setting for the Pro-I camera body.
