Years ago I bought a Mamiya 645 w/leaf shutter. It's the first model out, 500 top shutter no meter. I don't know why but I only shot 1 roll of 220 film, which came out well for a beginner, and then I lost interest. Lately my interest has been rekindled to the point of buying another Mamiya 645E and...a Pentax 645N. Both of which are pristine and the price was right. Anyway, not to start any disagreements, but my observation is this. The Pentax I believe is a better camera than the Mamiya 645E. However, I confess to liking the Mamiya more. I'm curious to know what the more experienced MF shooters feel. My journey started in 1968 military service. A combat photographer was assigned to our company and we became friends. I've come all the way with Nikons since then even trying digital but somehow film still appeals to me. How does the field think about this?
