Mamiya Duophoto Adapter for Universal Press or Polaroid 600SE Professional Rangefinder Cameras ~ Rare

Mamiya Duophoto Adapter
for Mamiya Press Professional Rangefinder Cameras
or Polaroid 600SE Professional Rangefinder Cameras with 127mm Lens


I had planned to have a lot of fun with this complete Duophoto Adapter set, but too little time.  The Duophoto adapter attaches to the 127mm lens, like a lens cap.  You compose your image by using the viewfinder peephole on top of the adapter.  The unit is designed to be used with a Polaroid back using 3 1/4 x 4 1/4 Instant film, however, nothing prohibits you from using any film back.  Upon taking the picture, you will have an image containing two images, side by side, of what you saw in the viewfinder.

Included in this listing is

  • Duophoto Adapter
  • Front Cap
  • Tethered Viewfinder Cap
  • Border Mask for your Polaroid Film Back
  • Instruction Manual
  • Box and Styrofoam
  • My Photographic Blessings
The viewfinder view looks absolutely amazing. Seeing this alone almost made me reconsider letting it go.  The slightest issue that I see are small specs on the main glass panel.  See the images below as I got in close to show this.  Also it looks like someone tried cleaning this and left streaks around the edges.  Based on how lenses work, I doubt this will affect the image, but I have not tested the unit.  Based on the screws around the edges, it looks like the unit can be easily disassembled so that the glass could be properly cleaned.  Worse case scenario, one could simply remove the glass, as it appears only to be a dust protection mechanism, but don't quote me on this.  I am hoping that the glass can be easily cleaned.

Your Mamiya Duophoto Adapter will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail, worldwide and will ship within 1 business day, of your PayPal payment.  Payment is expected to be rendered within 12 hours of the listing's end.

Thank you for looking and please feel free to message me should you have any questions.
