which Mamiya 6 lenses do you own

[courtney]

Mamiya 6 owners. What lens's do you own and use mostly.

 

[courtney]

At this stage i only have the 75mm lens, (minus lens hood) but i'm still hunting for the much favoured 50mm. That is all i aim to own and most likely use. Will buy the 150mm if i see it cheap, but i think it would receieve minimal use from me.

I have all 3, but the 50 rarely leaves the body.

All 3, most used: 50mm

All three. Mostly the 75mm. The 50mm would be next, and the 150mm taking the tail end. Don't use the 150mm that much, but it is nice to have especially for landscapes.

I am not sure there is a correct answer to this question. Before the Mamiya 6, what did you use and what focal lengths did you perfer? I like taking pictures of people and I find the 75mm a very natural focal length - I am not a headshot fan and perfer to relate the person to their environment. I find the 50mm emphasizes the environment too much for my taste.

I have the 75 and the 150. Against the grain, but I seem to use the 150 the most. I would, like many 6 owners, love the chance to shoot with the 50, but it is WAY out of my price range.

I own the 50 and 75 but I've owned the camera only a few days so I haven't even had anything developed yet. I really like shooting with the 50, though. I'll get the 150 later on down the line when I can afford it, although I know it won't get as much use as the 50 or 75.

Actually, I dont have any. But I do have a Mamiya 6 with a polaroid back on it that I obtained.
Might anyone know how I could obtain a normal film back door for the Mamiya 6? I would love to be able to use this to shoot with.

 

[JeffGreene]

Like many others, I have all three, but rarely use anything other than the 50. It's an incredibly sharp lens!

Three. Most used 75mm , close second 50mm; wrap up 150mm about 10 percent of shots

 

[el_rico_es]

All three. They were purchased in the following order: 75, 50, 150. They are used in the following preference order: 50, 75, 150.

 

[Jim Watts]

Also all three. 50 used most about 70%, 75 next about 25% and 150 last only about 5% and then with the camera on a tripod for landscapes.

I have the 50 and 150 and love them both dearly. Especially the 50.

Hi,

I have all 3 plus the close up attachment. Most used lens is the 50. Then the 150.

I have some Marine shots taken with the 150, and enlarged to 48"x48" and they are fantastic.

Also Landscapes using the 50 are razor sharp. All with a tripod of course.
