Have for sale a NIB Mamiya M645 Auto Bellows Kit. Unit was simply removed from wrapping to check condition & operation. Comes with all paper work, magnification tables, twin cable release (allows an M645 lens to stop down, then trips shutter on M645 body) box, packing, etc.
Some key features:
---------------------
1. Unlike virtually all bellows kits, offers front standard tilt as well as shift - without flopping whole enchilada 90 deg in a ball head thus requiring a recompose, etc.
2. Front M645 mount can be removed and LF lens used - or LF lens (any with Copal #0) can be mounted via a M645 body cap (e.g. mount LF lens in M645 body cap, mount body cap onto front M645 female mount).
3. Rear standard M645 mount rotates. Allows camera to rotate from portrait to landscape mode w/o moving bellows.
4. Bottom rail is two pieces, each with own fine focus & lock mechanism. Undo one screw and two rails disconnect. Can then lock rails at 90deg to on another so can use fine focus mechanics to shift camera and bellows left-right independent of fore-aft fine focus of front & rear standard.
5. With usual M645-SLR adapters, any of Canon, Nikon, Sony, etc SLRS can be used on rear standard.
6. Bottom rail has a rubber-coated base for table-top use with standard 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 threaded tripod/plate sockets.
7. Bellows can be removed in about 10 secs to be swapped for balloon bellows if desired.
8. Optional bits (not from em) allow lenses to mount reversed on front standard, slide copying, etc.

Some pics below showing mounted on a (crudely greyed-out) RRS 10" bar with clamp and my 1Ds2 and in this case a M645 80/1.9 lens. Excuse the quality - taken with a P&S.
- First is bellows partially extended with a bit of down tilt.
- Second shows two rails split for fore-aft and left-right fine movement
- 3rd shows setup for the quick test shot.
- Test shot was with M645 80/1.9 at F8, 1Ds2, a bit of front tilt, a bit of extension. NO PP of any kind - just converted to jpg.
Price is US$425 shipped and PP'd within NA from Canada. EMT within Canada, take of 3%.
Offshore is fine, buyer pays difference. Price is firm as unit is NEW and 100% complete.
Products would consider in trade: Nikon F5, F4S.
