Note:

Mamiya pioneered the 645 SLR system camera three decades ago and the Mamiya 645 AFDIII, with its TTL auto-focus, auto-exposure, auto-flash and auto-film winding features is the latest Mamiyamasterpiece and reflects its long tradition of medium format camera expertise.

Special Advice To Professional Photographers
Your Mamiya 645 AFDIII is designed for heavy professional use and will give you a long service life if properly maintained. Your camera and lenses have many moving parts which require periodic lubrication. Its electronic components, too, are subject to wear and tear and areaffected by ambient conditions like dust, sand, sea air, heat and moisture. If cameras had odometers like automobiles, it would be easier to specify servicing schedules. May we suggest that if you shoot thousands of film rolls per year, you send your equipment annually for servicing to the Mamiya distributor in your country. Mamiya 645 AFDIII corresponds with digital backs compatible with MSCE (MamiyaSerial Communication of External) system.

Combining 35mm handling ease and speed but with an image size almost 3 times larger, it is a full-featured camera, utilizing many digital controls and LCD displays, deeming it appropriate for the age of digital photography.

Its high-tech focal plane shutter with speeds up to 1/4000 sec. permits flash sync up to 1/125 sec. and has an exclusive "SafetyRetraction" feature, which protects it against accidental damage.

The AE Prism Finder with its many features, protected by a sturdy magnesium housing, and also the Power Drive Grip, are now integral components of the die cast aluminum camera body, designed for heavy professional use.

All the many features, safety interlocks and other important information are covered in detail in theseinstructions. It is imperative that you read them thoroughly before you put your camera to work, in order to ensure proper operation and maximum results.

In order to acquaint yourself with the functions of the camera, you will want to practice without film. Please see the page 9 how the camera can be tested without film.
