Feeler: Mamiya 645 Pro/Bronica and lenses

[JPerkins]

Hey guys, need to tap your brains. :wink

I run a small defense contracting company who has closed out a contract and we have some surplus gear. The Project manager turned in a bunch of film cameras and lenses, a large box to be exact of some Mamiya and Bronica equipment and some lenses.

Does this have any value on the open market? We used them to shoot passport photos and graduation ceremonies etc. From what I understand they were top of the line back in the "day". Most of the Mamiya stuff still has original boxes and the lenses are in great shape.

Thanks for any advice.

AF Bronica and Mamiya still brings some money...RB/RZ manual focus stuff less. A couple of high end social photographers are still using Mamiya C330's (twin lens reflex). Try pricing it on KEH, their system is pretty automated. That will give you some idea.

Wow, I wanted a Mamiya 7 for years... they were worth a lot of money last time I looked.

There's nothing quite like a great big negative from a relatively compact camera!

I think Flea Bay is the place to go look at what stuff is bringing...
