Mamiya Standard of Excellence
Mamiya lenses are designed and built for today's foremost photographers who expect their equipment to provide both outstanding and distinctive results.
Engineers at Mamiya have developed rigorous performance criteria for each lens design. No detail is overlooked. No test is omitted. The goal is technical perfection... The result is a series of lenses which have set the new world-standard of performance.
Each lens element is precisely polished and coated using Mamiya's proprietary multi-coating process to increase light transmission, dramatically reduce flare, ensure crisp, clean whites and vibrant, yet natural colors.
Mamiya engineers and inspectors test continuously as the lens is assembled to insure flawless quality. The result is a lens designed so carefully, built so meticulously, that it consistently renders extraordinary performance.
It is Mamiya's unique balance of extreme sharpness, brilliant contrast, accurate and consistent color fidelity and overall high performance that captures the imagination of contemporary photographers who choose Mamiya to express their personal visions.
Among today's community of world famous photographers, Mamiya lenses have established themselves as the new benchmark by which others are measured.
Rangefinder Lens Design
Because rangefinder design eliminates the large, bulky mirror box of SLR design, lenses can be designed simply and rear elements can easily recess towards the film plane. The result is the possibility of ideal lens designs, which Mamiya's computer-aided optical R&D department crafts with the utmost pride and unsurpassed precision of any medium format system. The extreme accuracy of rangefinder focusing and lack of shutter or mirror vibration also contributes to razor sharp results not obtainable with SLR lenses.
