I had a Mamiya 645 for quite a while back in the 80s. It was popular
everywhere, not just in Japan. It was popular for several reasons;
firstly, there was a large range of lenses, bellows,filters, and other
accessories readily available,
secondly, the lenses were superb,
thirdly, whilst not quite up to the build quality of the Hasselblad,
it was still beautifully made, and vastly cheaper than the Hass;
and WOW I still remember those pin sharp prints.
