Is the Mamiya 7 a 6×7?
The Mamiya 7 is a 6x7cm medium-format rangefinder camera system with interchangeable lenses that takes 120 and 220 film.
What format is Mamiya 7?
It is a 6 x 7 format film camera—dubbed “the ideal format,” by Mamiya—and this aspect ratio is by far my favorite due to its not-too-long, not-too-squat shape.
Why is the Mamiya 7 so expensive?
Its small size, great lenses and lower numbers keep the price high. The fact that digital medium format is also very expensive compared to digital FF also means that people who like medium format also keep the market very active.
How good are Mamiya lenses?
“Conclusion: All the Mamiya AF lenses performed outstandingly, on a par with or better than other medium-format autofocusing lenses we’ve tested. Overall handling was nice (no aperture rings!), switching between manual and autofocus was easy, and most important, our pictures were very sharp.
Is Mamiya 7II worth?
Prices are crazy high for this camera. You can probably find a Mamiya 7II with an 80mm lens for around $3000 or more. I still think this camera is worth it with its new price tag. I would pay that much for it just because I know it’s what I am looking for in a camera.
