I’ve been shooting film for years and I still have, love and regularly use my Mamiya 645 1000s. That 80mm 2.8 “kit” lens is as brilliant as any lens on that camera IMO. Great job pointing out the waist level finder limiting use to landscape oriented photos!🙏🏼
So exited. Getting my own 645 1000 next week. I have a two week trip coming right after it and i have a project i want to create with it. This was by far the simplest and best "to the point" instruction video so far. 👍 & Sub. Thank you.
@@dennyrulos7370 sure but aren't you glad there's not b roll of someone pulling the camera out of a drawer, inspecting their film, brewing a cup of coffee, grabbing their keys, walking out the door, getting in the car, driving somewhere, getting out of the car, murdering someone, getting out the camera, and sitting at a park bench to talk about it?
I love waist level viewfinders in 6x6 cameras (I own a Hasselblad 501CM and Rolleiflex 3.5E). I see no real pupose for thos finders in non-square cameras.
@@threeminutepro Sorry for the missunderstanding, butI did not say I see no pupose in 645 cameras or that I see no purpose in the Mamiya 645 specifically. I said: I see no pupose in waistlevel finders on top of a 645 camera. Meaning: If you shoot 645, slap a prism on top and you have a great camera. Not non-square cameras make no sense; waist level finders on non-square cameras make no sense.
I also noticed that when there is no film in the camera, the advance crank lever and the shutter buttons do not work. Also, no big deal, as the do work with film is in the camera, but still makes wonder.
The back is not interchangeable on the M645 1000S. You can’t use the rb67 lenses with the m645. This link has a lot of info: reddit.com/r/Mamiya/s/M5WxnKmbnN
I tried using the prism to set the shutter speed, but when I put the actual shutter speed dial on the red dot, and took a photo, it seemed as if the mirror was locked up. I could not advance the film.
@@threeminutepro brand new batteries. Everything else works fine. Just tried it again, and sure enough, the mirror locks up and I cannot advance the film until I take it off the red dot which closes the mirror. No big deal, but still a ??

@@threeminutepro to me I considered to buy this camera but it looks like a cheap version of Pentax. Doesn't scream quality from what I saw in the video
