Sunday morning I'll be picking up a functioning Mamiya-Six. It's the old folding style from the early 1950s. I'm very excited.
I'm having trouble finding a manual (most searches for Mamiya 6 come back to the 1990s model). The Butkus site where I usually score manuals claims to have one, but rather than a pdf copy it's listed for sale at $45 plus shipping! That's more then 2/3 of what I'm paying for the camera.
I think this camera is going to be different enough from what I'm used to that a manual would be extremely beneficial. Does anyone have or know where I can get a manual? I'm willing to buy one if there isn't a pdf copy available, but not for $45 (that just seems outrageous to me).
