Mamiya M645 1000s with 80mm f/2.8, Grip and Metered Prism – Faults Listed

Description

A Mamiya M645 1000s medium format SLR supplied with the Mamiya‑Sekor C 80mm f/2.8 standard lens, pistol grip, and metered prism finder. The 1000s is a well‑regarded mechanical 6×4.5 camera offering a bright viewfinder, interchangeable finders, and a robust shutter. This example is offered with several functional issues and is suitable for servicing, repair, or parts.

Condition

Overall Condition: Fair
Body: The shutter does not always fire and the camera requires a service. General cosmetic wear consistent with age.
Metered Prism: Meter is working, but the aperture coupling attachment is not engaging correctly, so the lens does not link to the meter as intended.
Lens: Mamiya‑Sekor C 80mm f/2.8 shows scratches to the optics and minor fungus. Focusing and aperture rings operate with a typical mechanical feel.
Pistol Grip: Functional with age‑related wear.

Included

• Mamiya M645 1000s Body
• Mamiya‑Sekor C 80mm f/2.8 Lens
• Metered Prism Finder (meter working, aperture coupling faulty)
• Pistol Grip

Collectors Notes

The M645 1000s remains a popular entry point into Mamiya’s medium format system due to its reliability, modularity, and excellent lenses. Kits with both the metered prism and pistol grip are desirable, even when requiring repair. Bodies with intermittent shutter issues are commonly restored by specialists, and the 80mm f/2.8 lens is widely serviced, making this a viable project for repairers or collectors seeking a complete set.
