Help with my Mamiya M645 Super
I will start by saying this camera functions, but interestingly. The camera will take a picture, but most of the time the crank will be stuck after the shutter releases. I have exposed the internals surrounding the shutter wind and couldn't find anything out of place or in need of cleaning. The only workaround I have found so far is to put the dark-slide in, release the back, snap it back into place, then wind the crank again. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
RZ67 shutter not firing properly, lever jams
RZ67 Pro II hasn't been used in years. I don't know if it was working when put away, but it's been stored well indoors in a low humidity environment. I want to get it back in action.
When I hit the shutter button, here's what happens:
The mirror goes up
The shutter closes
The aperture begins to close but stops short of the selected setting
And that's all that happens. At no point does the shutter open for the exposure. No matter the shutter speed. No matter the mode, white dot normal mode or orange dot emergency mode.
After a shot, I can't advance the lever. To fix this I can switch to emergency mode, press the shutter button and hear a faint click (but no visible movement), then I'm able to advance the lever and try another shot.
I've tried with three different lenses in good condition, with and without a back, with a cable release, with cable release in lens mirror lock up socket, a different battery, different settings combinations, etc. But it's the exact same behavior every time.
I believe that narrows it down to a camera body problem. I've never heard any beeping by the way, which I've read can happen with similar errors.
I don't know where to go from here. Any advice on further troubleshooting or repair?
Open to any and all ideas or thoughts. Thank you!
It’s a Mamiya, but not quite a Mamiya
Polaroid 600SE with roll film adaptor.
Now that Polaroid pack film is pretty much dead, the only way to use this camera without modifying it is with a roll film adapter, which costs more than the camera itself. Getting a Mamiya Universal Press would make way more sense in every way, but I decided to take the hard way instead.

Finally a proud C330f owner
After an insane kerfuffle on eBay, in which the "near mint" C3 I bought had fog and moisture in both the taking and viewing lenses, I finally have a unit that is in great condition!
I feel like I got pretty lucky, not only is this in great condition, but it was listed as a standard C330. The only thing that's missing is the film reminder on the back panel. Also, it's not like the name plates are interchangeable and it clearly says it's the 'f' model.
It also came with a copy of the manual in very good condition, as well as a prism finder, which is also in good condition.
Really the biggest issues I have found with it are the leatherette peeling ever so slightly, and old foam that needed to be cleaned out from the glass on the WLF. I also picked up a 135 mm lens since I tend to prefer longer focal lengths.
I have a roll of Kentmere loaded. Can't wait to burn through a couple rolls to see how things look.
Cloudy lens
This is balsam separation, right? If it is, I heard it's complex to fix. Probably not worth to have it serviced and just keep shooting until it falls apart, the images I get are still good.
Internal filters for RB67?
I've assembled an RB67 kit with the 180, 140, 127, 65 and 50 lenses, the extension tubes and two backs. I'll probably get rid of the 127 now that I have the 140 and eventually try to find a 90. I think all these lenses take 77mm front filters. I plan to use the camera for B&W photos. Getting a set of filters (yellow, orange, red, green and deep red for IR film) is gonna cost some bucks. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with attaching a filter holder behind the rear lens element for small filters such as are used on some 500mm mirror lenses for 35mm. It seems like this could be done pretty easily with some glue that would be reversible easily. I have a lot of small filters, so I'd probably not have to get anything except perhaps series VI filter holders or something similar. I wonder if anyone has tried this or it there's any particular reason that I shouldn't attempt this.
