Mamiya 6

The Mamiya 6 is a medium format rangefinder introduced in 1989, shooting 6x6cm frames on 120 or 220 roll film. It uses interchangeable G-series bayonet lenses and features a collapsing lens mount that reduces body depth for transport, positioning it as a compact alternative to SLR medium format systems of its era.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Mamiya 6 have ranged from around £30 to £1,100, with a median near £310 across the sales on record. The spread is wide because body-only or faulty examples sell for very little, while complete kits with a working 75mm G lens are where the higher figures sit; in today's market, condition and lens inclusion are the main value drivers, and electronic faults in the shutter or metering can push a saleroom result down to double digits.
