Hi all, my first post here. A few months ago I bought a mint C330s with 80mm & 135mm lenses. I've recently shot a roll if Fomapan 100asa which I've sent off for processing.
Looking forward to getting involved here.

Best wishes from central Scotland;

This C330s has only had two films put through it in its lifetime, what a lucky find!
 
Welcome, Peter. I'm pretty new here, too.

That is indeed a fortunate find! I'm rather partial to a C330f of my own. I think these were absolutely brilliant TLRs.

I traded my C-330, lenses and that awful Porro-Prism for a Pentax 6x7. Two sads! I missed the Mamiya. The weight yes, but a wonderful tool. The other sad? Cheap DSLR and SLR makers used this crummy system in place of a real Pentaprism.
 
Regards shooting landscape photography with a Mamiya C330S TLR, I need advice please about using filters for shooting landscape photography, is this possible......?......any advice would be appreciated regards what to use on the filter thread etc....?

I've a 'Lee' filter 100 system which I used for a Nikon but now only shooting film photography, so I'm new to this.

Any advice/knowledge/experience would be great, thanks!

Dirty Gertie by Greyscale3, on Flickr

Rolleiflex Automat Model K4 / 50. She is a little rough around the edges and could use a bit of sprucing up, but everything works and the lenses look excellent. The finder is pretty bright, and is even usable when set as an eye-level finder. What is most surprising is that the camera survived a trip from Annapolis, MD to Fort Dodge, IA via USPS in a 12"x10"x8" box with absolutely no packing materiel at all in the box. No foam, no peanuts, no bubble wrap, no paper, just the camera rolling around in the box like a seed in a gourd. That is quite a testament to Rollei build quality, I think.
 
^^fine collection you have, Steve! tho I feel a bit guilty for having two tlrs now. Just pieced this beast together for under $140! Found a Pro-S body for a whole $4 (thrift store didnt know what it was) and the lens and hood made up the rest of the balance. The lens is a 65mm f3.5. I could have went for the 80mm, but have that focal length on another tlr and wanted to try something different. Anyway, looking forward to getting some film back!
