You are a legend thank you !

[@jamesallen5591]

Thank you, 2012. Here in 2019, I couldn't figure this out on my new (to me) RB67.

Great video. Can I remove back without a darkslide with 645 mamiya?

[@jerryxu5912]

Hi,it's a good idea to use the camera whitout darkslidr.I have a RZ67 without a darkslide and I want to make it by myself,could you please share the drawing to me? I'm really appreciate you for helping!

If the back is off can you remove the dark slide?

[@scott.lamoreaux]

My RZ67 120 back is stuck on my RZ body as the lock tab is loose and won't allow it to unlock. Any idea on how to get the back off?

That's a tricky one. Without the use of the lock tab, it would be very difficult to remove the back. Anyone else have a suggestion?

[@purwantolilik156]

so a mamiya rb67 without dark slide is still usable for shooting film?

[@GOPhotoVideo]

Absolutely! Removing the film back to load and unload film should be done in complete darkness of course. But dark slides are cheap enough on eBay, so there should be no reason a Mamiya RB should be without one :)
