Special Advice to Professional Photographers
Your Mamiya 645 AFDis 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 are also subject to wear and tear and are affected by ambient
conditions like dust, sand, sea air, hear 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 rolls of film a year, you
have your equipment serviced annually by the Mamiya distributor in your country.
Mamiya 645 AFDcorresponds with digital backs compatible with the MSCE (Mamiya
Serial Communication of External) System.
