I have at least a dozen, as I develop my B&W at home so I always keep a few in case. I think some people do sell them on ebay but at daft prices.

I wish I had the space to do that. Commercial dev and scan is convenient and good quality but a bit painful on the wallet.I have at least a dozen, as I develop my B&W at home so I always keep a few in case. I think some people do sell them on ebay but at daft prices.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

It would seem that the original poster, the "OP," doesn't have a manual for the camera. While the 645n is "almost" intuitive in its operation, there are little quirks which would take a neophyte a long time to discover without instruction. Have a look at this site http://www.butkus.org/chinon/ It is a treasure trove of camera and allied gear manuals, all free! Please send Mike Butkus, the proprietor, a contribution so he can keep up the wonderful service he renders.
I think you will really enjoy the 645n. Watch for the 35mm wide angle, it is stellar, as is the 120 mm macro.

Hertfordshire,
mostly.
I once lost a take up spool thereby rendering a very expensive camera useless for want of a part you cannot buy
Best regards
