Re: [APML] OT: Questions for Mamiya 645M and multiple exposures

Nicola,

I don't know about the T setting.  My camera just has a red circle next to
the B setting.  It is supposed to be used in conjunction with the metered
prism finder.   The M645 is still capable of multiple exposures.  There
should be a small knob marked 'Multi' on the same side as the film advance.
Just turn that and the film will not advance when you wind the crack to
reset the shutter.  When you are done, be sure to turn the Multi switch
back.  I don't know if the M645J model has this feature but the M certainly
does.  It also has mirror lockup, which is nice.

Tom
