Description — Mamiya 80mm f/1.9
The Mamiya 645 80mm f/1.9 Sekor C is a prime lens designed exclusively for the Mamiya 645 mount system, operating in the medium format lens category. Its standout specification is the f/1.9 maximum aperture, which is notably fast for a medium format standard prime and opens up possibilities for available-light photography and selective focus work. The 80mm focal length places it in the standard range for the format, making it practical for portraits, editorial sessions, and studio use.
Focus is manual only, with no autofocus mechanism, which fits naturally into the measured pace of medium format shooting. The lens features a 67mm filter thread, keeping it compatible with a wide range of common filter accessories. Weighing in at 570g, it has the heft expected of medium format glass while remaining practical for extended use.
There is no image stabilization, so solid technique matters. For Mamiya 645 system shooters looking for a fast, standard prime with full manual control, this lens covers that role directly.
