Mamiya C220 Professional Body Only - Fair Condition | The Interchangeable Lens TLR Workhorse

Introductory Paragraph The Mamiya C220 Professional is the definitive choice for the enthusiast who values the large, square negatives of medium format photography combined with unprecedented creative flexibility. Unlike traditional twin-lens reflex cameras that are restricted to a single fixed focal length, the legendary Mamiya C-series is celebrated for its unique interchangeable lens system. This specific unit (S/N: B46067) is offered as a "body only," providing the perfect foundation for you to build your custom TLR kit using renowned Mamiya-Sekor optics. Because it features a rack-and-pinion bellows focusing system, it serves as an incredibly capable tool for dramatic close-up and macro photography, a feat nearly impossible on other TLRs. Whether you are building a studio rig or looking for a versatile 6x6 field camera, this Mamiya provides the mechanical soul and professional heritage that made it a staple in wedding and portrait studios around the world.

Key Features

• Rare interchangeable lens system allowing you to switch between wide, standard, and telephoto TLR lenses

• Precision rack-and-pinion bellows focusing enabling extreme close-up and macro capabilities

• Classic 6x6cm medium format square imaging on standard 120 or 220 roll film

• Robust, fully mechanical industrial construction designed for heavy professional use

• Interchangeable viewing hood and focusing screens for customized operation

• Straightforward, reliable film transport mechanism

• Modular design that accepts a wide range of professional Mamiya accessories

Condition Report Fair condition. The Mamiya camera body (S/N: B46067) is fully functional mechanically but shows visible cosmetic markings, brassing, and surface wear consistent with heavy professional use. The bellows are in good condition, extending and retracting smoothly via the focusing knobs. The waist-level finder opens correctly, and the film transport mechanism has been tested. Please note: This camera is sold as a body only; a Mamiya TLR lens pair is NOT included.

Specialist Note "The Mamiya C220 is a remarkable feat of engineering. What I love about this model over the heavier C330 is that it strips away some of the bulk while retaining the incredible ability to change lenses and focus incredibly close thanks to the bellows. This particular unit has clear cosmetic markings—it has been out in the world taking photos, giving it a fantastic 'rat-rod' mechanical aesthetic. For anyone who wants the classic waist-level TLR experience but refuses to be limited to a single 75mm or 80mm lens, this camera body is the perfect starting point."
