That’s awesome! I had the chance to play with and review the New Mamiya 6 and adored it!

They are mechanically quick-witted. Sometimes the camera doesn't shoot, and I always think it's broken, then it's because there's a little lever or button somewhere that is preventing dumnbess from reaching the emulsion in an innapropriate way. Medium format and leaf shutter is not as simple as 35mm film cameras, and the Mamiya's design is simply incredibly smart.

Imagining extending a stay in Tokyo by 3 days to wait for a new camera lens might feel a bit like winning the lottery. Awesome!
