Yes, Denton, I'm quite predictable.  The Mamiya is an ancient Super-23.
With 100/3.5, 6x7 back, built-in bellows, ground glass back, and alumunim
case, it set me back around $300.  Takes very decent pictures and is great
for handheld photography--except for the extreme weight.

Delivery room greetings...
