In this video we go over the basic field test we perform when checking to make sure an RZ is operational. We’ve broken the process down into 7 easy to follow steps. Including taking the lens on and off, loading film, and checking the shutter.
A very special thanks to Ritt Pong for providing some RZ67 photos: / ritt_faced

Best tech video ever on the RZ67. Knowledgeable, short, speedy, to the point!
Great video! Now I need to find an RZ66
Watched it a day before getting my RZ67 Pro II. Very helpful!
Thank you. I love your IG Page. So much detail. I plan on sending you my 7II for a CLA soon.
Thumbs up! Hoping to make more videos repairing film cameras. Very helpful
Thank you for the video! Super helpful for sure. Luckily mine was running super good, but woulda been great to have this video before hand. RZ's are the shiii!
I appreciate you making this video!!
thanks it really helps !
Is the Bill Rogers photography store still in business? It’s been 3 years since any viddos were posted here. Thank you.
Another common issue with the RZ67 Pro II is with the Fine Focus Knob. Since it's essentially a tiny gear made out of plastic, they break really easily. This causes the focus knob to catch and rotate the bigger knob. If the problem is even worse, the gear can dismantle into the main camera components.
Yes, we do mention that in the video. Early RZ67 Pro II camera did indeed have a non-metal fine focus gear. This was revised in later models to a metal gear that will not break.

Just found your channel. More RB67 stuff please! What parts are the most common repairs?
i am modifying an adapter to minimize the tube length for adapting RZ/RB to Nikon F so as to mount the lenses on the PB-4 bellows (w tilt and shift). I am then _hoping_ i can get the concoction to be short enough to maintain infinity focus after mounted and useable. I was considering modifying for the r5 further, and if I could have more tube length removed there, I am pretty sure I can get infinity with the long flange focal distance of the RZ and RB lenses - whichever one has the longer flange focal distance is the type I am looking to buy... They mount the same though, right? I mean, its the same mount but just different Flange focal distances and lenses, but the same mounting system, yeah? I have never seen the mamiya RZ and RB67. I have seen several medium format cameras, many mamiya 645 camera, pentax 67 cameras, fuji 6x12, but when I saw the flange focal distance here I was like, this is my best opportunity to really jailbreak the tilt shift and close focusing capabilities of my bellows
i love macro photography, but there is just so much I would like to do with the bellows on subjects maybe a couple feet from the camera and i just need to get as close as possible to minimizing the flange lengths of the adapters because the bellows _closed_ adds around 25mm - and in that position no tilt or shift is possible. you need about 45-50 mm from the camera body to have full control of tiltand shift, plus the flange focal distance of the body of the R5, that's like 67-72mm ... if the adapters could be made well and very short, this should work grrreat.
Hi Bill! Do you sell eq?
