Thank you. Dusting off my mothers Mamiya RB67 with plans to add a digital back. This was very helpful. Thank you.

Thank you sir, I have been interested in one of these for a few months now.

Thanks so much for producing this segment. Really appreciate it.

Great video hit on Great points Missed checking the condition of the bellows for cracks and rips

Very helpful. I remember reading years ago that our hearing is sensitive to ratios, i.e., we are good at detecting if 1/4 of a second is consistently twice as fast as 1/2 a second even if we can’t tell if either is accurate.

Just got my Mamiya RB67 and i can safely say God approved of this purchase because your video shows up lol

That was exactly what I needed! I'm about to go and check one of this beauty tomorrow and this video was super helpful :)

Super useful video, thank you for making it and sharing!

your voice is really nice dude!

Great video

Glad I found this video. I'm running into an issue where my film lever won't advance. Took the whole camera apart and, without the film back attached to the rest of the camera, the lever advances. I was able to load the film and advance to '1'. Once I attach it to the body, ensuring that the dark slide is out, the shutter release is not turned off and it's set to single and not multiple exposure, nothing. I'm able to fire the shutter release and cock the lever, but not advance the film.

I have a RB67 proSD, hardly ever use it. Bought a new 180 KL lens for it at the time. It probably needs servicing, good place is Sendean cameras, been around for years in London.

Thanks! Any chance on getting a buying guide for the Pentax 67 and RZ67?

Great video thanks! I just bought an entire RB67 s kit with 7 lenses. But I just realized all lenses came with choked shutter and might have been stored this way for years. Does this mean trouble or does it not necessarily cause issues?

Great info cheers for this. A workmate gave me a loan of her RB67 she was gonna bin it til I stupidly told her what they’re worth now it’s very much a loan until I no doubt make her an offer. I checked the camera out all seems in good order. My first shot with it seemed ok but no way could I advance the film I checked the usual interlocks all were good I finally found a wee slider switch on the centre top of the film back I tried this and the red flag popped up in the counter window this allows me to advance I had to follow this procedure for the entire film. I’m guessing this is a fault on the back as from my understanding the red flag pops at the end of each exposure to indicate the frame is exposed etc. anyway fingers crossed the images come out ok. Liked and subbed mate regards Paul 📷❤️📷

Thank you

Just returning a lens that looked fine just looking through it. But putting a flashlight behind it, an interior surface was completely coated from edge with something foggy. It didn't go away in a day or 2 so wasn't condensation and was too splotchy to be that.

very, very useful. Thanks

Hello! So I bought an rb 67 pro sd with 3 lenses, a waist level finder, and the heavy view finder for $150 total. The body doesn’t work I took it too a shop and they said I’d need to be serviced and it seems expensive so I bought the original rb 67. I have the Rb 67 pro s backs and the pro sd body that doesn’t work. Would all this be compatible? Also I understand there’s a few differences with one being portraits. What would I need to do on the original rb67 to make sure I frame my photo right?

I ordered an RB67 on Ebay recently and, while the seller says everything works and that it's in near mint condition, if it does need to be serviced then what are my options? I assume I'd need someone who's more of a film camera specialist to potentially fix and replace anything. Where would I look for a repair shop?

I have one with 90mm lens and its shutter works but with a bit of delay. It is nearly like semi mirror up function ;) It fires and seems to be keeping times but after about 3 seconds after pressing shutter. Did you see this problem before?

Hey there, I just came across your video and wanted to get your opinion on an issue I'm having with a borrowed RB67. I noticed in your video that when you started to check to make sure the leaf shutter was accurately operating/corresponding to the correct shutter speed that when you pressed the shutter button on the RB67, the leaf shutter immediately activated. On the RB67 I'm currently using, there's about a half a second delay from the time I press the shutter releast button on the camera body to when the leaf shutter activates. This delay is consistent no matter what aperture and or shutter speeed I'm at and it seems like the shutter speeds all seem like they are accurate to the specific time I dial the lens to. Would you have any ideas as to what could be causing this issue?

Any tips on where to get this camera serviced should it need it? I live in the southern US so could ship to NYC if needed but trying to assess how difficult it would be to get repaired.

Hello! I just bought the RB67 Pro SD and when its on the multiple exposure, it fires but when this is off it does not fire. Any tips?

If ur buying from eBay and it says that the camera is cla’d and in near mint condition those r great signs right?

I found a mint condition rb67 and lens, looks like they’ve never been used at all, I’m wondering if this is worth the extra cost as compared to one that was used more but potentially serviced throughout its lifetime? Whereas the mint condition likely has sat in the same position for 40 years, never been serviced. Can that create problems?

are the backs from the standart RB67 interchangeable with the ProS version?

Does anyone know the exact discontinuation date of the Mamiya RB Pro-SD?

Any recommendations for service - CLA - if needed?
