Mamiya 645 PRO repair. This camera had some impact damage so took a bit of disassembly to straighten everything out. Seen in the photos are the wind side mechanism and the complete shutter assembly removed from the body. I often hear talk of this camera with a “plastic body” when in fact it is made of metal with a plastic outer shell similar to the Mamiya 7 and 6 models.
