The Mamiya 645 lenses are a great choice when you are looking for a vintage lens to pair with the vast array of large format sensors around now. These lenses combine new mechanical housings with the original optics from the late '80s / early '90s - offering good resolution without looking clinical. They have lovely, subtle flares and excellent rendition of skin tones.
For information about image circle and sensor coverage - including a video showing coverage of the different formats - please see our article here.
The lenses have been rehoused by the masters at TLS and have an integrated speed booster, which makes the lenses wider and faster than the originally housed version of each lens. The cine housing makes the lenses more production friendly, featuring compatibility with clamp-on matte boxes and standardised gearing on the focus and aperture rings.
These lense have a native LPL mount and pair well with the ARRI Alexa 35 and the ARRI Alexa Mini LF (as well as other cameras with a native LPL mount or LPL adapter).
For use on Sony E mount cameras, we have the Wooden Camera LPL adapter.
These lenses cannot be adapted to be used with PL or EF camera mounts.
This test clip shows the coverage of each lens in our TLS Mamiya 645 set for each of the ARRI formats LF Open Gate, 4.3K LF 16:9, 3.8K LF 16:9, S35 open gate and Alexa Mini 3.2K.
