Traded my old Celeron Laptop for this near-mint Mamiya C33 Pro today. Has the 135mm/4.5f on it. I have wanted one of these for a LONG TIME! Pics:

Looks to be Mint-even has the box. The C33 was the ancestor of the famous C330. If I remember correctly the C33 had to be manually cocked while the C330 cocked when wound. The C33 solid. If someone was trying to shoot me I would like to have a C33 to hold in front of me. It would stop any caliber bullet up to around 44 magnum!

Alex,
It's good to hear from you again. I missed your enthusiasm and your interesting acquisitions.
I see you have been away. Some place called "a while back". Great deals. How do I get there?
The Mamiya C33 is - Wow! As are the Canons.... and the Beltica .... and the Univex ..........................

Thanks y'all! Wayne, this one cocks with the crank. I couldn't tell you the difference if it slapped me in the face(haha). This is my first big mamiya MF, so I am not very educated in them yet..hehe Maybe the CXX0 series had the shutter built into the body, instead of in the lens like the Cxx series? Mickey, I apologize for my absence. The GF and I split "a while back", I totaled my Benz, lost a bunch of money, etc. so that got me in a bad frame of mind. I try to avoid forums when I get like that(kind of a grouch). I snapped out of it last week though, and have been getting pics together and such. I am glad to see everyone again on here. I'll try not to get like that again..lol Edit: Sometime tomorrow or so, I will post photos of my latest microscope find. Tasco metal-body stereo microscope. I will need to make room in the big case, because the C33 is WAY to big for my TLR shelf in the wall-case...eek!

I guess the C3 had to be cocked manually. Trying to remember--The C330 autococked and I believe the C220--the cheaper version didn't. Iknow the C33 was a real deal if you compter cost per pound!!
