As nobody has mentioned it, I suggest you check out http://www.KEH.com - they are a well established and respected buyer and seller of camera gear and you can probably find the C330 listed on their website to see what one in "like new" condition sells for.


Thanks,Will do

I also had a Mamiya C330 with several lenses. It was a great professional camera. The images bring back memories. I would also like to know what it is worth in such a new condition.


Don't know value,like most photographers,I just appreciate great quality and maybe miss the film days.my wife said,oh no,not another camera for the shelf.she might have a point.

Came across this camera that was stored in a closet for,at least,45 years.from the looks of it,no film was ever run through the camera.I took it out of the bubble plastic wrap and was amazed at the New condition.also the 80mm.lens was the same way.I am a Hasselblad guy and Nikon. Just appreciate the quality and build.Would like to sell for a good price.any idea what this would be worth?the box is musty,as was the home it came out of.did not see any fungus,but I would think it would have to be professionally cleaned.the shutter sounded like butter.this must have been well made.

Been there and done the same thing, also shot weddings. As long as my computer (I call it my darkroom) works I'll keep the Canon stuff that I have come to enjoy more then all the Hassy and Nikon's I once cherished. At 72 I think my stuff will out last me. The problem with my older equipment was film and finding someone to do it. My lab after many years went dry, digital only. They'd scan negs but it wasn't the same thing. I had also sold all my real darkroom equipment and didn't want to start over. I plan on riding what I have with some new additions to the end and won't have to take any loses.

Hi,RRS,thanks for your input.I guess the way to go here is keep going,everything changes over time.I cherised my Hasselblads and Fine Nikons,but was afraid my kids a would sell them at a yard sale for $5.00 one day.never had a Canon,but know many who love them

Micro 4/3 is worth a look, too. Here are a few mirrorless cameras I like:

Sony a6300, a6500
Fujifilm X-T2, X-Pro2
Olympus OM-D EM-5 II, PEN F, OM-D EM-1 II
Panasonic Lumix DMC-G85, DMC-GH4, DMC-GH5 (arrives late March/early April)

These are all very different, very capable machines. Sony and Fujifilm models listed have APS-C sensors. Olympus and Panasonic models are all Micro 4/3. Olympus and Panasonic can mount each other's lenses, and there are over 90 Micro 4/3 lenses available.

http://hazeghi.org/mft-lenses.html lists most of them.thanks so much,Burkphoto for your informative reply.much appreciated.I am going to research all suggested.I feel digital is once again" on the move "ok with that

I own a GH4 and two pro zooms (12-35 and 35-100mm f/2.8, equivalent in field of view to 24-70 and 70-200mm on full frame). That kit is about one fourth the size, bulk, and weight of equivalent full frame dSLR gear, and 1/3 the size, bulk and weight of equivalent APS-C dSLR gear. My bag is MUCH lighter than in the film days. And I carry one light bag instead of two heavy cases, since I no longer need a separate video camera.

I see little point to Sony full frame mirrorless if your goal is to travel lighter. It's great equipment, but the system weight is about the same as full frame dSLR.

I'd go browse the reviews of the latest models at http://www.dpreview.com/ and then try before you buy. Rentals are available from many sources.

Hi,Sharpshooter,by waiting too long,I meant that I will take a beating on selling Nikon gear,like I did with the film cameras.mirrorless seems fascinating to me,it might just eclipse what we are using now like phone cameras are doing to the mini camera market.

My work shop partner sold all his canon gear. L lenses 2 bodies. And is now mirror
Less Fuji and Olympus he will now carry 3 bodies and about 6 lenses. Funny thing his bag weighs almost as much as my bag full of full frame Nikon gear and the f 4 trinity of lenses. I keep my 2.8's in the studio now days

I have a Fuji TX 1 and I don't use it to often. I find the controls harder to use then my Nikon even though they are Mostly on the outside, it is also a little battery hog.

I shot the newest Olympus (mark 2 I think) it shoots like 90 raw files a second. With auto focus. It felt really good in my hands but again I don't want to have to relearn were the controls are. I am like on auto pilot with my nikons never having to think about where the controls are.

Thanks for your input,Joe.I have Nikon digital with some of their best glass because my brain and fingers are hard wired for Nikon.

I am using a Sony A7r a lot when travelling, also a Nikon 1 J2 which is much more compact. What I have learned is that if you are using a dslr or full frame mirrorless is not all that different in terms of weigh and space. It is when it comes to the lenses that you can really make your gear much lighter and much more compact. With the Sony A7r I am usually using some of these old manual lenses, 14, 28, 35, 50 and 85 mm and sometimes an old plastic Nikon 28-80 zomm lens or olympus 75-150 mm zoom lens. This all along with flash, charger, tablet, extra batteries etc, all goes in small shoulder bag. Mirrorless cameras make it just as easy to manual focus as it was in the film days with the split focusing screen so it easy to say goodbye to all the bulk and weight of modern stabilized autofocus lenses. Perfect for travelling light.

And if this is too much the Nikon 1 system is the smallest camera system with changeable lenses. A camera and pair of lenses can be put in my pockets or the wifes purse.
