Mamiya 7 Manual de usuario

Congratulations on your purchase of the Mamiya 7 and welcome to the

world-wide family of happy Mamiya camera owners!

Mamiya pioneered the 6x7cm medium format SLR system camera when it

introduced the first Mamiya RB67 in 1970. In 1982 an additional model followed,

the Mamiya RZ67 with electronic features.

Both cameras soon became the market leaders and the preferred tool of trade

for portrait, commercial and magazine photographers all over the world and

established the 6x7 rectangular image as the "ideal format".

Now we are proud to present the Mamiya 7, 6 x 7cm rangefinder camera.

Reflecting Mamiya's traditional quality workmanship plus modern design, the

Mamiya 7 is compact and lightweight. It offers the handling ease of a 35mm

camera, while yielding far superior 4.5 times larger images. Featuring

interchangeable, rangefinder coupled lenses and AE metering, it also permits taking

24 x 65mm panoramic images on 35mm film, by means of an optional adapter kit.

The Mamiya 7 lens program includes a standard 80mm lens, a 65mm wide angle

lens, an ultra-wide 43mm lens and a 150mm telephoto lens.

The Mamiya 7 and its lenses have undergone extensive quality controls at every

step of manufacture. Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before you use

the camera. A proper understanding of all its features and functions will eliminate

potential misuse and ensure a long service life.

Mamiya 7, the ultimate 6x7 rangefinder camera.

The Mamiya 7 is the only camera in the world that has these

exclusive features:

• Ideal 6x7cm film format that enlarges to standard photographic

and industrial paper sizes without cropping and without wasting

film. A size that can be viewed with the naked eye and that is

easy to retouch.

• Lightweight, compact, "quick on the draw" and ergonomically

designed to fit in your hand like a glove.

• Crisp, accurate, broad based, split-image rangefinder, that is

easy to focus, even in poor light.

• Bright viewfinder with frame lines that are automatically indexed

to match the focal length of lens in use and that automatically

adjust for parallax.

• Interchangeable, world-class Mamiya lenses, utilizing the latest

optical glasses and computer aided design and that take

advantage of the camera's short flange focal distance (there is no

mirror box) to reach new heights in lens quality.

• Precision, super quiet, electronic shutter with speeds from 4 to

1/500 sec., flash synchronized at all speeds.

• Built-in "dark slide" curtain that permits changing lenses with

film in camera.

• Precision AE (automatic exposure) meter with manual

overrides.

• Selftimer (delayed action release) with automatic turn-off.

• Optional external battery case to wear inside clothing in

extreme cold.

• Optional panoramic adapter that permits use of 35mm film and

yields 24x65mm images.

• Built with typical Mamiya quality for hard professional use and

long service life.
