Mamiya Reflexa

Introduced in 1963, the Mamiya Reflexa was a single-lens reflex (SLR) camera designed for the 120 roll film format, likely aimed at the advanced enthusiast segment. It featured Mamiya's characteristic robust construction, typically utilizing metal body components and a focal-plane shutter, reflecting the company's reputation for reliable engineering. As a mid-century Japanese SLR, it offered photographers a modern alternative to folding medium format cameras or imported European models, incorporating standard SLR features like through-the-lens viewing and exposure control via a match-needle selenium light meter on the front plate or a separate prism hood.
