Mamiya 65mm f/4
The Mamiya 7 65mm f/4 is a moderate wide-angle lens for the Mamiya 7 medium format rangefinder system, designed for landscape, environmental portrait and travel work on 6x7 film. It uses the bayonet mount specific to the Mamiya 7 and 7 II bodies and is not interchangeable with RB67, RZ67 or 645 systems.
Recent UK saleroom evidence is thin: a single hammer result of £403 at Chiswick Auctions in October 2025 sets the only verified data point, so today's market value sits around that level for a working copy at auction. Hammer prices reflect wholesale results before buyer's premium and exclude dealer retail margins, so clean, boxed examples typically sell for more in the dealer market than the figure shown here. With one sale on file, the price range and median both rest on that £403 result; expect spread either side as more 2026 auction data emerges.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a Mamiya 7 65mm f/4 sell for at UK auction?
The most recent verified UK hammer price is £403 at Chiswick Auctions in October 2025, which is the current reference point for what the lens is worth at saleroom level.
What is a Mamiya 7 65mm f/4 worth in 2026?
Based on the single verified 2025 auction result of £403, a working copy is priced around the low-£400s at hammer; retail dealer prices for clean, boxed examples typically run higher.
Does the 65mm f/4 fit the Mamiya 6?
No. Mamiya 7 lenses use the N-series bayonet and are not compatible with the Mamiya 6, which takes G-series lenses on a different mount.
What should I check before buying one?
Look for fungus, haze, oil on the aperture blades, coating scratches and any sign of element separation, and confirm the focus action is smooth and the leaf shutter fires accurately at all speeds.
