randy_ranc Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 I am going to begin purchasing a medium format system in the near future; I believe I have settled on the Mamiya 645 because there is so much of it out there available, and it seems to be the best value right now. What I want in my system is interchangable backs, thru the lens metering, a prism, all in a package that can can be handheld relatively easy. My question is what are the main differences between the 645 Super and the 645 Pro??? It seems to me that either would fulfill my criteria. It seems that I can pick up a Super system for somewhat less than the Pro I don't go for to many bells and whistles, but would like to know the differences. If anyone has other system recommedations I will appreaciate the advice as well. I tried to do a search for the info I am seeking and had a bit of trouble finding what I am looking for; so if you know of a link where I can obtain reviews of the two systems or the information I'm looking for that will be appreciated as much as your advice.Thanks in advance, your recommendations and advice is much appreciated,Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_levine Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 If you have to have magazines,go with the Pro,the Super's had mechanical issues that the original 645's & the Pro's didnt.Personally,Id forgo the magazines in favor of an insert camera.The older M645's,can be had for $300 for a complete kit.

ulrich_ploedereder Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Hello Randy, the 645 Pro has TTL flash control with dedicated flashes. A feature I always missed as a formerly owner of a 645 Super. Regards Uli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
