NEW: RB/RZ-645 Adapter

Use Mamiya RB/RZ lenses on 645 and 35mm Bodies

Many of the excellent high quality Mamiya RB/RZ medium format lenses are owned respectively available worldwide for reasonable prices. A lot of professional and amateur photographers had/have such systems in use. So, it was obvious, to present a solution for the adaptation of these excellent lenses for the Mamiya 645(D) , the Pentax 645D, Contax 645 AF and all of the well known 35mm (D)SLR camera systems (digital or analogue). The smaller camera formats use the optical sweetspot of the RB/RZ lenses, resulting in best sharpness and contrast, even illumination and the absence of chromatic aberration. Many of the special RB/RZ lenses, like the portrait soft M 150mm and 180mm lenses, the legendary Apo telephoto lenses, or the outstanding 140mm macro lens, are perfect for professional usage.

The adapter is made with the original Mamiya RB/RZ bajonetts, the 645 mount can be rotated (for landscape and portraits etc.) within 90 degree clicks, and is fixed on a massive L- shape trip holder. Thus, even the heaviest RB/RZ lenses can be safely mounted and held firmly. The rugged, milled helicoid tube with 25mm extension, focuses from infinity to close- up (all extension tubes of RB/RZ, 645 or 35mm are usable too!) is extremely stable, made for permanent professional usage, and of silky smooth operation. Because of the large image circles of the Mamiya 6x7 cm lenses, these are perfectly suitable for the use with shift & tilt adapters. HCam is already in progress preparing such an S&T adapter, which will be made for professional and permanent operation. For this, we are using all of our know-how of our Hartblei TS lenses, and will build this TS adapter as a special extension for our RB/RZ adapter to use with 35mm (D)SLR camera bodies. But also in combination with the original Mamiya RZ-TS adapter, and the RZ 75mm and 180mm short barrel lenses, every Mamiya 645 will achieve the shift & tilt movements!
