More importantly, all three lenses are capable of collapsing into the body. ![]() All three lenses are rangefinder coupled, and bring up appropriate framelines in the viewfinder when attached. That’s around a 28mm, 43mm, and 85mm equivalent. Mamiya introduced the 6 alongside its entire lens lineup, which consists of a 50mm f4, a 75mm f3.5, and a 150mm f4.5. The Mamiya 6 sold for around $1,400 US when it was new, which is the equivalent of around 3,000 Euro. The medium format space, however, was a bit more hesitant to utilize plastic so intensively. By 1989, 35mm SLRs like the Minolta Dynax 7000 and Canon EOS 1 had made plastic bodies possible and mainstream. The 6 was a space age camera in the medium format space. The 6 should not be confused with the line of folding 6×6 cameras produced by Mamiya throughout the 1940s and 50s. The Mamiya 6 is an interchangeable lens collapsing rangefinder system introduced in 1989. ![]()
