Aug 30, 2012 15:24 | #1 I saw this camera at Yellowstone. The guy changed the lens while it sat as pictured. I did not want to interfere (shot at 280mm) and kept my distance. It looks unique and I'll guess very expensive...  BTW is he in AUTO?  Thanks for any information.

ssim POTN Landscape & Cityscape Photographer 2005  10,884 posts Likes: 6 Joined Apr 2003 Location: southern Alberta, Canada More info | The controls on this looks to be a Mamiya 645 Pro. If I could afford one I would love to be shooting with it. I had a chance to use one when I worked for someone else and the images are so great. I still have a Pentax 645 that shoots film and it is still a pleasure to use that from time to time. My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

The 645 Pro is a newer(ish) model that was still produced until around 1997 I think.
