My Mamiya M645 1000s

I am so happy about my Mamiya! I have loaded it with a second roll of Portra 400 and I´m ready to hunt new motives.

Tears of a birch tree

I really like my new 80mm f/1.9 lens! This is shot @ f/2.8 I think because that twig wasn´t still so a handheld shot at f1.9 was too difficult. This was the last frame in my first roll in´my new Mamiya  so I had to get a little focus right..

Mamiya M645 - A long way...

Moving forward, slowly.. to better days to come.
I have heard a lot of different opinions about the Mamiya Sekor C 45mm but in my world it looks great but I have not tried it enought to praise it too much..

Single - mamiya M645 1000s

Yes, I am single again, after over 13 years in a relationship with a woman that I also share two children with. I can´t say I am happy about it, I have been very sad these last three weeks, she sees me more like a friend and have lost her feelings for me and I who thought things where ok..

I made this self portrait on the first week because I wanted to express my feelings about being single. I´m alone, I´m cold and yet, I am free to do what I want..

Can´t say I´m looking forward to this new life and the forthcoming weeks/months but I guess things will get better and I guess there will be a day when I can feel happy again!
I love my children and that makes my days a little less difficult to live..


BTW.. looks like my new Mamiya works as it should, this is from the first "test-roll."

Mamiya M645 1000s - The ultimate camera?

I had the opportunity last year to borrow a great looking Mamiya M645 1000s with Sekor 55/2.8 and 80/2.8 lenses. I fell in love! It was a joy to handle, so much like my old Hasselblad 500C/M but much smaller and not as heavy! I did like my Hasselblad very much too of course and maybe one day I´ll get a new..

But mosly, I have also been thinking a lot about getting a Mamiya M645 1000s for myself...could be the ultimate camera for sure!
So today I made up my mind and bought a lovely Mamiya M645 1000s from eBay. It is a great looker and comes with the Sekor 45/2.8 and 80/1.9 and 150/4. It even have the metered prism w. new battery, handstrap, filters, a few rolls of film, extra film insert and also aliminium case so it was a great deal and a great kit! The seller says the camera works perfect so I really hope it does! I can´t wait until it gets here, I´m very exited and happy!

Must say I love these old magazine ads!

I hope I will be able to show some pictures of my new Mamiya soon and also, pictures taken with it.

Frosty Mamiya mornings

This shot was taken last year. I know that cold autumn mornings and winter makes you want to stay inside but there is always something interesting to capture out there..grab your camera, grab your lens and get out there!
