The Mamiya C330 (JP9) has been inspected and tested by CPB Darkroom and is in excellent working condition. The camera functions mechanically as intended, with all buttons, dials, focusing mechanisms, film transport controls, and shutter release operating correctly. It does not feature a built-in light meter. Exposure must therefore be determined using an external light meter or a light metering app before making an exposure. This is standard for the camera.
Cosmetically, the camera body is in excellent condition, showing only very minor signs of wear consistent with careful use. The images shown depict the exact camera you will receive.
Introduced in 1969, the Mamiya C330 is one of the most advanced and versatile twin lens reflex cameras ever produced. Unlike most TLR cameras, the C330 features an interchangeable lens system, allowing photographers to pair the camera with a range of focal lengths while retaining the bright waist-level viewing experience that TLRs are known for. Its precision rack-and-pinion bellows focusing system enables exceptionally close focusing without additional accessories, making it equally suited to portraits, still life, product photography, and macro work. Combined with its robust all-metal construction and large 6 × 6 cm negatives, the C330 remains a favourite among professional photographers and medium format enthusiasts.
This camera uses 120 roll film, producing 6 × 6 cm negatives.
