When you’re legally obliged to not leave your home, what else is there to do besides make cocktails? Talk about cameras, that’s what. In this episode of Behind the Glass With a Glass, I’ll show you how to make one of my favorite cocktails: a gimlet. Perhaps it was named after a hand-powered drill, perhaps it was named after Rear-Admiral Sir Thomas Desmond Gimlette. Either way, it’s delicious. The recipe is simple and can be easily modified if you don’t have all the ingredients. As for the camera…well, buddy, strap in for a deep-dive into the Mamiya 645 Pro TL. It’s a 4.5cm x 6cm medium format SLR camera that’s as functional as it is customizable. Although you’ve never seen this camera featured in any of my on-location videos, it happens to be my most-used camera in recent months. It’s portable, it’s reliable, it has all the tools I need, and it’s way f’ing smaller than my RZ67. My kit came with a manual film advance, a waist-level finder, an FE401 AE prism finder, and an 80mm f/1.9. Then, with a little help from eBay and KEH (https://www.keh.com), I added on to it with a 55mm f/2.8 (my most-used lens) and a WG402 power winder. Depending on how loud and conspicuous I’m willing to be, I’ll customize the camera to match. Like all my cameras, I’m most interested in how easily it facilitates me getting the pictures I want. In that regard, this Mamiya 645 Pro TL is a winner. The control layout is logical and simple, the size is just-right, and it’s got the trademark Mamiya attention to detail that I’ve grown to love. Toss in a roll of Kodak Portra 400 and I’m ready to do this thing. Much like my RZ67, I hope this camera will keep up with me for years to come. As always, thanks for watching, please drink responsibly, and here's to you - cheers!
