Mamiyaflex C2 and Mamiya 23 Standard
Mamiya’s big boys! (not pictured is the RB67 and 645 family)
I have the 6×9 back on the 23. The standard lens is the Mamiya-Sekor f3.5 90mm with a Sekosha-S shutter.
The 23 is an affordable option for 6×9 format, and of course, the Mamiyaflex C2 is one of the best early TLRs.
As pictured, the C2 weighs 1,596 grams, and the Standard weighs 1,999 grams without film.
I enjoy the 6×9 format and regret selling my Fujica GW-690.
The Standard’s date code is ‘FD’, which indicates that it was made in April 1966.
