Since its introduction in 1984 there has been a debate as to whether the Pentax 645 really needed mirror lock up (MLU). Owners said it didn't because it featured a superior mirror braking system, while pundits said that it did.

With the introduction of the new 645NII, which does feature MLU, it's now possible to settle that debate.

I should have added that I mention this here in the Pentax 67 forum because of the number of people that use the 645 as a second body on the 67 systems.

Very well done, Michael . The article about the P67II is also a good one. Thanks for sharing.
