Mamiya C220

The Mamiya C220 is a lightweight twin-lens reflex camera made in the early 1970s with interchangeable lenses ranging from 55 mm wide-angle to 250 mm telephoto. The camera accepts 120 and 220 rollfilms. The rack and pinion focusing system with a bellows makes it possible for close-up photography without attachments. The straight film path has no sharp turns for absolute flatness of the film.

Image quality of the Mamiya C220 and the Mamiya C330 is exactly the same, just the ease of use is different.

The Mamiya twin lens reflex cameras (together with the Zeiss Contaflex[1] and the Koni Omegaflex M[2]) are among the very few medium-format TLR cameras with interchangeable lenses.
