'normal' lens for the P645?

Hi,

P67 "normal lens" is 105mm f2.4 and this combo is amazing.
Is there a similar great lens in the 645 line up for the P645? (I am talking about the film camera 645). Is it the 645 75mm f2.8?

Yes. The 75mm 645 lens is the standard lens for the pentax 645 series of cameras.

Except if you have the 645D with the smaller sensor, in which case is is the 55mm 645 lens.

55mm is normal on the 645d due to the crop factor. 75mm is normal for 645 film cameras.

I don't know about the comparison as I don't have the 67. The 75 f/2.8 for 645 is a lightweight inexpensive but sharp lens on both film and digital.

not sure if you know about the 67 lens to 645 body adapter... so you could mount the 105mm on a 645 series body.
