Mamiya Magazine 35
The Mamiya Magazine is a 24×36mm rangefinder made by Mamiya. Lenses are interchangeable, however only two lenses were available:
- a Mamiya Sekor 5cm 1:2.8
- a Mamiya Sekor 5cm 1:2.0
These lenses used a specific screwmount.
But the unique feature of the Mamiya Magazine is that the film magazines are interchangeable, hence the name "Magazine". Each back has its own winding and rewinding mechanism, as well as a slide to protect the film whenever changing the back.
Interchangeable backs is a feature rarely found on rangefinder cameras. Other examples include Adox 300 and Kodak Ektra.
