Congratulations on your purchase of the Mamiya 645 PRO TL
Mamiya pioneered the 6 x 4.5 film format and introduced the world’s first 645
SLR in 1975. The 645 PRO TL is the latest masterpiece in this series and
Incorporates all the latest mechanical, electronic and optical advances. Its
external appearance, too, has been modernized and its ergonomic design
further enhanced.
We are sure that you will enjoy the many advantages this camera and its
accessories offer and want to particularly mention :
The 645 PRO TL has a built-in self-timer (delayed shutter release) which will
also facilitate time exposures. Attaching special leaf shutter lenses will
automatically set the focal plane shutter to 1/8 sec. Heavy duty gears connect
to the improved Power Drive Grip WG401, This grip also automatically cocks
the leaf shutter lenses and permits remote control.
The AE Prism Finder FE401, specially created for this camera, automates
exposure and shows LED safety signals. 35mm film holders now come with
panoramic adapters. A super fast 300mm f/2.8 APO lens was also designed
for this camera.
We are convinced that your camera will serve you well, because we have
designed it for heavy professional use. However, we ask you to please read all
operating instructions carefully before you put your equipment to work, in
order to ensure proper operation and maximum results
This manual covers the basic
camera. Separate instructions
are supplied with all system
accessories, including lenses,
finders, film holders, etc.
