Mamiya RB67 Professional S

The Mamiya RB67 Professional S is a 6×7 medium format SLR introduced in 1974 as the second generation of the RB67 system. It is a modular, bellows-focusing studio camera with a rotating film back and leaf-shuttered Sekor lenses, positioned when new as a professional tool for portrait, wedding and commercial work.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for RB67 Professional S bodies and kits have ranged from around £120 to £600, with a median near £340. Results are strongly condition- and configuration-sensitive: bare bodies with worn backs sit at the lower end of the range, while complete outfits with a clean 90mm Sekor, prism or waist-level finder, and a working 120 back fetch the upper figures in the saleroom.

Frequently asked questions

What does the 'S' in RB67 Professional S mean?

The S designates the second-generation RB67 body, which added revised film back coupling and interlocks over the original RB67 Professional.

How much does a Mamiya RB67 Professional S sell for at UK auction?

Recent UK hammer prices span roughly £120 to £600, with a median around £340 depending on completeness and cosmetic condition.

Is the RB67 Professional S fully mechanical?

Yes, the body and its leaf-shuttered Sekor lenses operate without batteries, so metering must be handled externally or via a metered prism finder.

Are RB67 Professional S lenses interchangeable with later RZ67 lenses?

No, the RB67 uses the Sekor/Sekor C mount, while the later RZ67 system uses a different Sekor Z mount that is not cross-compatible.
