Mamiya Press G Adapter - Graflok Back for your Mamiya Universal Press Professional Rangefinder

The G is for Graflok, as this device provides complete 6x9/2x3 Graflok compatibility for your Mamiya Universal Press Pro Rangefinder Medium Format Camera.

With this rare and unique adapter, you can mount all of your early Mamiya RB roll film holders and the entire series of Graflex/Singer Precision "Graphic" Graflok roll film holders.

Note: This adapter is NOT for the Polaroid 600SE Professional Rangefinder, but please check my other listings.

Being that Horseman didn't quite stick to the exact specification, I can't list them as being compatible.  However, when I just tried mounting a Horseman 6x9 Ground Glass, I noticed that the only thing keeping it from fitting is the thin square piece of metal with the three screws, as seen all the way to the far left in the first Gallery Photo.  By removing that piece, Horseman gear just may fall right in place.

Not only can roll film holders fit a Graflok back, but you can even attach an adapter to mount your Nikon or Canon DSLR.  Now your Mamiya Universal can have a digital back.
Want to do Collodion?  Then get one of these.  Do you need the P Adapter so that you can have a Ground Glass to focus on?  Skip the P Adapter and click the BIN button.

I'm not thrashing the P Adapter, but the paperish hood irritates me.  If you take a look at the top and bottom of the G Adapter you will notice 2 little hooks.  These are for mounting a Graflok Ground Glass/ Focus Hood.  The folding hood walls are made of metal.  Let me know if you need one.  Also, I have a very simple method of making a Ground Glass for the G Adapter in which I will share with the auction winner upon request.  Many roll film holders are available as well.

I could go on mentioning all the various attachments from the likes of Graflex, Arca-Swiss, Cambo and Wista, just to name a few, but if you have read this far, then you probably get the point.

Your Mamiya Press G Adapter will ship via USPS Priority Mail, worldwide.  International buyers, please choose "USPS Priority Mail International" if you would like detailed tracking and Insurance (I pay for the Insurance.)  

Though I usually ship same day, please allow one business day.  As for all of my auctions, I expect payment to be rendered within 12 hours of the auction's end.  If you can't make payment within that time frame, then please manage my expectations by sending an e-mail.  Lastly, I will communicate via e-mail, using the e-mail address that is provided by PayPal.


Good luck and thanks for looking.

More film photo stuff!
