The '''Mamiya Press''' is a line of medium-format rangefinder system press cameras manufactured by Mamiya. The first model was introduced in 1960, and the final model was discontinued in 1991. It was targeted at the professional press photography market, and a wide array of accessories was offered.
==Overview==
===Back system=== thumb|left|Original (grey leather) 6×9 rollfilm backs for M-type The maximum image size that can be captured is 6 cm × 9 cm using 120 or 220 rollfilm, but images can be taken in a number of different formats, and using several types of film.<ref name=Shell>{{cite book |url=https://archive.org/details/mamiyamediumform0000shel |title=Mamiya Medium Format Systems |author=Shell, Bob |chapter=8: Mamiya Universal Press System |chapter-url=https://archive.org/details/mamiyamediumform0000shel/page/130/mode/2up |date=1992 |publisher=Hove Foto Books Limited |isbn=0-906447-76-3 |location=St Helier, Jersey, Channel Islands |pages=130–134 |url-access=registration}}</ref> Models prior to the Universal came with either a M-type or G-type back interface. M-type backs were compatible with rollfilm (120/220). G-type backs included Mamiya RB rollfilm backs and backs using the Graflok system.<ref name=UniMan/>{{rp|9–10}} With Polaroid pack film, the maximum image size is {{cvt|73|×|95|mm|in|frac=8}}, although only the 75 and 127 mm lenses will cover the larger size.<ref name=UniMan>{{cite web |url=https://archive.org/details/manualzilla-id-7009923 |title=Mamiya Universal Instruction Manual |date= |publisher=Mamiya Camera Co., Ltd. |access-date=26 March 2023}}</ref>

In addition, for the M-type back interface, Mamiya made a Focusing Screen Holder (00000) and Ground Glass Back (60775) which accepted a Cut Film Holder (Type J, for 6.5×9 cm sheet film; or Type A (60610), for 2{{frac|4}} × 3{{frac|4}} inch sheet film) and provided a ground glass screen for focusing.<ref name=UniMan/>{{rp|27–31}} A Film Pack Adapter (60611) also was available for 520 film packs.<ref name=Dlx-23/>
===Viewfinder=== The original line of Press cameras (1960–66) were equipped with a reverse Galilean viewfinder that had a magnification of 0.66× and an effective rangefinder baseline length of {{cvt|60|mm}}.<ref name=Press-60/> The upgraded rangefinder introduced with the Super 23 (1967) and Universal (1969) models had a magnification of 0.72× with a slightly increased effective baseline length of {{cvt|61.2|mm}}.<ref name=Super23-67/> In addition, the upgraded rangefinder had switchable brightline frames corresponding to the 100, 150, and 250 mm lenses, which automatically corrected for parallax.<ref name=Super23-67/>
thumb|right|Super 23 with Sports Finder As an accessory, each wide-angle lens was supplied with a supplementary viewfinder that attached to the accessory shoe on top of the camera. In addition, an external wire-frame Sports Finder was available as an accessory.
===Focusing=== Several focusing aids were available, including the Focusing Hood (for the M-type back interface),<ref name=UniMan/>{{rp|24}} Focusing Hood Model P (for the "native" Polaroid back interface on the Universal),<ref name=UniMan/>{{rp|26}} and right-angle and magnifying focusing backs (for the G-type back interface).<ref name=UniMan/>{{rp|28}}

===Generation 1=== ====Mamiya Press (Deluxe)==== The original Mamiya Press was introduced in September 1960 with the M-type (Mamiya) back attachment system. It came with a 90 mm lens and has a bellows mechanism on the back that allows up to 15 degrees of tilt and 31 mm of extension.<ref name=Press-60>{{cite web |url=http://www.mamiya.co.jp/home/camera/museum/saishu-page/1960/mamiya-press.htm |title=マミヤ プレス ( Ｍａｍｉｙａ Ｐｒｅｓｓ ) |lang=ja |trans-title=1960: Mamiya Press |website=Mamiya's History |publisher=Mamiya Camera Co., Ltd. |archive-date=May 2, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150502040404/http://www.mamiya.co.jp/home/camera/museum/saishu-page/1960/mamiya-press.htm |url-status=dead}}</ref> The camera was launched as the Mamiya Press Deluxe for the United States market in 1962.<ref name=Shell/>{{rp|130}}
====Mamiya Press G==== The Press G, introduced in November 1963,<ref name=Shell/>{{rp|132}} is identical to the original except for the G-type (Graflok) back attachment system, which is compatible with the same interface used by Graflex Speed Graphic cameras. Externally, the Press G can be distinguished by the color of the leather covering, which is black to match the Graflex accessories. The Press (Deluxe) is trimmed in grey leather instead.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mamiya.co.jp/home/camera/museum/saishu-page/1960/mamiya-press-g.htm |title=マミヤ プレス Ｇ ( Ｍａｍｉｙａ Ｐｒｅｓｓ Ｇ ) |lang=ja |trans-title=1963: Mamiya Press G |website=Mamiya's History |publisher=Mamiya Camera Co., Ltd. |archive-date=May 3, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150503223900/http://www.mamiya.co.jp/home/camera/museum/saishu-page/1960/mamiya-press-g.htm |url-status=dead}}</ref>
====Mamiya Press S==== The Press S is a simplified version of the original camera, introduced in June 1964. It features a fixed Mamiya ''Color Sekor'' 105 mm {{f/|3.5}} lens with four elements in three groups and does not have a rear bellows, but accepts the same rollfilm backs as the Press using a M-type interface.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mamiya.co.jp/home/camera/museum/saishu-page/1960/mamiya-press-s.htm |title=マミヤ プレス Ｓ ( Ｍａｍｉｙａ Ｐｒｅｓｓ Ｓ ) |lang=ja |trans-title=1964: Mamiya Press s |website=Mamiya's History |publisher=Mamiya Camera Co., Ltd. |archive-date=May 2, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150502040516/http://www.mamiya.co.jp/home/camera/museum/saishu-page/1960/mamiya-press-s.htm |url-status=dead}}</ref>
===Generation 1.5=== ====Mamiya 23 Deluxe==== The original Press (Deluxe) was renamed to the Mamiya 23 Deluxe in 1965. The updated name reflected the camera's added ability to use 2×3 inch sheet film or 12-sheet "520" film packs with the ground glass holder, as an alternative to the standard rollfilm backs, via the M-type back attachment system.<ref name=Dlx-23>{{cite web |url=https://www.pacificrimcamera.com/rl/00217/00217.pdf |title=Now there are two Mamiya 23 Press cameras |publisher=Mamiya division of Ehrenreich Photo-Optical Industrics, Inc. |website=Pacific Rim Camera, Reference Library |access-date=26 March 2023}}</ref>
====Mamiya 23 Standard==== A simplified version, omitting the rear bellows, was introduced in July 1965 and named the 23 Standard;<ref name=Shell/>{{rp|132}} the 23 Standard upgraded the Press S by adding the same interchangeable lens mount as the rest of the line. Externally, the top cover of the Standard has a satin chrome finish (instead of grey paint) and the body is colored black; the name is printed on the front of the camera near the rangefinder window.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mamiya.co.jp/home/camera/museum/saishu-page/1960/mamiya-press-standard.htm |title=マミヤ プレス スタンダード ( Ｍａｍｉｙａ Ｐｒｅｓｓ Ｓｔａｎｄａｒｄ ) |lang=ja |trans-title=1965: Mamiya Press Standard |website=Mamiya's History |publisher=Mamiya Camera Co., Ltd. |archive-date=May 2, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150502040523/http://www.mamiya.co.jp/home/camera/museum/saishu-page/1960/mamiya-press-standard.htm |url-status=dead}}</ref> After the Super 23 was released, replacing the 23 Deluxe, the 23 Standard was renamed to the Standard 23.<ref name=Std-23>{{cite web |url=https://www.pacificrimcamera.com/rl/02626/02626.pdf |title=Mamiya Standard 23 |publisher=Mamiya division of Ehrenreich Photo-Optical Industrics, Inc. |website=Pacific Rim Camera, Reference Library |access-date=26 March 2023}}</ref>
===Generation 2=== ====Mamiya Super 23==== thumb|right|Super 23 with rear bellows performing swing movement Introduced in August 1967,<ref name=Shell/>{{rp|132}} the Super 23 was the first major revision in the series. The body was redesigned, but still retains the rear bellows system.

===Polaroid 600 & 600 SE=== thumb|right|Polaroid 600 SE with 127 mm lens The Polaroid 600 and 600 SE are built by Mamiya, sharing their basic design with the Mamiya Universal but with physically incompatible back and lens mounts. The 600/SE are limited to using Polaroid Type 100 pack film through a removable back that is not compatible with the Mamiya P-type interface on the Universal. Whereas the 600 is a fixed-lens camera, equipped with the Mamiya 127 mm lens, the 600 SE is fitted with an interchangeable lens mount similar to the Mamiya Press line; however, only three lenses were made (75 mm, 127 mm, and 150 mm, sharing their optical design with their Mamiya Press counterparts) that cover the full Polaroid Type 100 frame size of {{cvt|83|×|103|mm|in|frac=4}}.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://en.polaroid-passion.com/manuel/manual-polaroid-600SE.pdf |title=Polaroid 600/600SE Camera User Guide |publisher=Polaroid Corporation |access-date=27 March 2023}}</ref>
Both backs and lenses are mutually, deliberately incompatible between the Polaroid 600 and Mamiya Press systems to preserve their respective markets; however, an adapter was made later that allows the use of M-type rollfilm backs on the Polaroid 600.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.instantphoto.eu/pola/pola_600se.htm |title=Polaroid 600SE |website=instantphoto.eu |access-date=27 March 2023}}</ref>
==Lenses==
All of the lenses have leaf shutters, which are released on the lens itself, not through the body as is typical with most cameras. The shutter is typically triggered from one of several models of removable grips, all of which have a built-in release cable. The lenses also have flash PC terminals compatible with M (flashbulb) or X (electronic flash) synchronization.<ref name=Univ/>
thumb|right|Mamiya Universal with extension ring set A set of five extension rings (60650) is available for close-up work.<ref name=MPS23+Uni/> In addition, there is a set of two spacers (60453) available for the Universal that extend the back away from the body, equivalent to the close-up capability enabled by the rear bellows on the Super 23.<ref name=UniMan/>{{rp|32–33}}<ref name=MPS23+Uni/>
