Mamiya 7 pricing

That's a terrific kit. It took me years to find 150mm, 250mm, and 50mm lenses at prices I could afford, for my Super Press 23. Prior to that, all I had was the normal 100mm and the 65mm. But I lived with it and got a lot of photos I liked.

YMMV, but I have found the 65mm to be a sometimes useful bridge between 100mm and 50mm. Remember the 50mm is the equivalent of a 25mm lens on 35mm. That is very useful but you may find you need something in between more than you think.

So, like others, I suggest you give it some time (two or three months of use) before deciding to sell anything. You may well regret selling any of those lenses. In my case, I find wide more useful that tele, but would not want to give up my 150mm or 250mm because when you need them, you need them.

In my case, the 250mm, being the f/5 version, is not a stick in your pocket in case you need it lens. If you want to go longer and get a 210mm f/8, it will be smaller, and usable, even if not RF coupled. They made a 250mm f/8 for the Press cameras, but not in great numbers. It also was not RF coupled. I got my 250 f/5 for not much more than the price of the f/8, but honestly, for how much I use it, I might have given up the 1 1/3 stop for the reduction in weight.
