Hi everyone - it’s been awhile but I shot a very fun studio meet yesterday and wanted to say that after repairing the film backs the GX680 performed admirably and it was a real conversation starterI was also using my oft used type S version which is slightly lighter and more compact since I use this rig handheld more and more. Notes - the viewfinder is still bold and bright with easy to see focus pop - I do have the 90 degree finder but don’t use it so much when I know I’ll be handholding the system - as for film backs I have replaced the dead batteries in my original 120 dedicated backs - not the type IIIn and they are performing great.
I’ll post some photos such as the portraits shot on the gx680 180mm lens when I get the negatives back - but really had a fun time. This camera is fast becoming my favorite though it did get heavy carrying the full kit to and from - I may need a wheeled case after all
anyone thinking of one try it out KEH had a type three for 300 last week so still pretty reasonablefor giant negatives with ultra sharp glass!
I'm curious about the backs. Is the III and IIIn the same back? They have their own 120/220 inserts? And finally, can earlier generation backs be used on the IIIs camera?
I'm using the IIIs again but thinking about getting another back.

All the information the OP asked for is on the sheet from the brochure I posted. Most relevant is the not at the bottom of the page.

Which Mamiya 645 - the connectors differ.
Wow - love those red bellows! AmazingAny links to Sandeha Lynch? Thanks!
I bought the OP/TECH Super Pro strap, Type B (not the "A" version).What are some options for strap connectors for the III version? Pentax 645 work?
hello, I just discovered this forum via a search as I try to convert GX680 lenses to Arca Swiss.
I have seen the images Nokton48 posted, thats very close to what I want to do. If you could tell me a bit mare about
the conversions I would be very grateful.
Do I need to add the shutters for mirrorless (Fuji GX100) or can the aperture be set manually?
I do not have the 20 posts required to email you directly...
Thanks
