{"overview":"The Mamiya TLR 180mm f\/4.5 is a telephoto lens for the Mamiya C-series twin-lens reflex system, intended for use on bodies such as the C220, C330 and their f\/s variants. As a short tele on 6x6, it was designed for portraiture, stage work and other subjects where the standard 80mm is too wide.","market_narrative":"At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the 180mm f\/4.5 have typically sat in the £20–£50 band, with a median close to £25 from the sales on file. The range stretches from £12 at the low end up to £90 for a stronger example in April 2023, and as of today in 2026 most clean, working copies still sell for well under £100 at saleroom level — these are wholesale results before buyer's and seller's premiums, so retail asking prices from dealers are usually higher.","buying_guide":"Inspect the glass for fungus, haze and cleaning marks, and check both taking and viewing elements because TLR lens pairs are matched and a damaged viewer is still a problem. Work the shutter at every speed, listen for sticky blades, look for oil on the aperture leaves, and confirm focus travel is smooth; also check the front bezel and rear group for any sign of separation or coating scratches, as tired copies are what drive the lower end of the price range.","specs":"Key specifications available for this listing are limited to a 180mm focal length at f\/4.5 maximum aperture on the Mamiya TLR bayonet; no further optical data is provided in the reference set.","faq":[{"q":"How much is a Mamiya TLR 180mm f\/4.5 worth today?","a":"On the UK auction data on file, most examples sell for around £20–£50 hammer, with a median near £25 and outliers from £12 up to £90."},{"q":"What is a Mamiya 180mm f\/4.5 TLR lens worth in rough condition?","a":"Tired copies with haze, sticky blades or cosmetic wear have sold for as little as £12 at auction, so condition has a large effect on the final price."},{"q":"What does a clean Mamiya TLR 180mm f\/4.5 sell for at auction?","a":"Cleaner, fully working examples have reached around £50–£90 at UK auction, though this is a wholesale hammer figure and dealer retail prices are generally higher."},{"q":"Which cameras does the Mamiya TLR 180mm f\/4.5 fit?","a":"It mounts on the Mamiya C-series twin-lens reflex bodies such as the C220, C220f, C330, C330f and C330s."}],"confidence":40,"reasoning":"Only six sales records and no specs or variant data were supplied, so pricing is usable but technical detail is deliberately limited."}

Sales History

Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
