Pentax's 1984 6x4.5 medium-format SLR — a handholdable, automated system camera.

The Pentax 645, introduced in 1984, is Pentax's original 6×4.5cm medium format SLR — a deliberately handholdable, automated alternative to boxy medium format systems, and the founding body of the Pentax 645 lens mount that survives on today's 645Z digital.

It shoots 15 frames per 120 roll (33 on the discontinued 220) through interchangeable film inserts rather than swappable backs, with a built-in motor drive winding at around 1.5fps, aperture-priority, shutter-priority, program and manual exposure, TTL centre-weighted metering, an LCD data display, a fixed prism finder and power from six AA batteries.

Its significance is as the camera that democratised medium format: launched at roughly half the price of rival systems, it became a landscape and wedding workhorse, and the affordable 645-A lenses it introduced remain usable across the 645N, 645NII, 645D and 645Z. The current film revival has pushed UK prices firmly upward, as the £1.2k-£3.1k listing spread shows.

UK used-buying checks: confirm which film insert is included — you need the 120 insert, as 220 film is discontinued and 220-insert-only kits are hobbled; check the top LCD for bleed and missing segments, a known age issue that makes exposure info unreadable; run the motor drive on fresh AAs and listen for laboured winding; note the original 645 has a fixed (non-interchangeable) finder and no mid-roll insert swap — if those matter, budget for a 645N instead; and test the lens contacts/aperture coupling with the included lens, since most UK listings at this price are body-plus-75mm kits.
