My new Mamiya M645 1000s arrived today!

Ever since I was lucky to borrow my friends 1000s I have been wanting one for myself. That was last autumn and I couldn´t afford a new camera until now..

What a beauty! And she´s all mine! I bought her from Germany last week and now today she´s here in Sweden with me. It was a great deal in my opinion, a full kit including:

Mamiya M645 1000s body with cap
PD Prism, TTL metering with leather case
Waistlever finder
Two 120-film inserts
Sekor C 2,8/45mm with case, caps and sunshade
Sekor C 1,9/80mm with both caps
Sekor C 4/150mm with both caps
Three filters
Mamiya strap
Metal case, good for storage and travel

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!
