Does anyone know what parts are necessary to convert a Mamiya 645 pro body to digital? I haven't posted here in a couple of years because of all the Trolls that used to congregate here.

You might check Phase One. They may make a back that will fit without need of an adapter/converter.

Others have pointed you to the product you seek.

Suggestion: Do not feed the trolls. Ignore their posts. Without attention, they tend to fade away.

Is your camera the analog Mamiya 645 pro? I have an old Mamiya 645 Pro 1000 body that has no electronics in it and not able to connect with a digital back. You need a digital Mamiya 645 body such as AFD, AFDII, AFDIII or the DF or those rebadged by Phase One. The older Mamiya ZD body that used the ZD 22 or 28MP backs. There are plenty of Phase One, Leaf or Mamiya digital backs with smaller file sizes from 22 to 40 MP due to their replacement by larger backs over 50 MP. I have 2 Mamiyas, a ZD with a ZD 22 MP back and an AFDIII with a 22 MP Leaf back. Love em!

Be well! Ed

If you seek a Phase One system I have one for sale. It's a Phase One AE body and several lenses and an 80 MP.
back. I'll make as good a deal as I can.

You DO realize that you're trying to buy a camera to bolt on the body and use the lens?
I have a Praktica- I have also looked, and found the price/performance of these products are abysmal.
I kept the P6 pristine, and bought adapters to put the lenses on a Nikon DSLR.
