The Mamiya C330 is a classic TLR (twin-lens reflex) camera. With two matching lenses, composition occurs through a waist-level viewfinder that looks through the "viewing lens" while the photographic film sees through the matching lens below it. These cameras behave very similarly to Hasselblad V-series cameras with waist-level finders aside from several key differences.
TLRs are usually lighter and easier to manage since they benefit from the lack of a mirror. The absence of the mirror slapping for each photograph reduces vibrations and sounds associated with taking photos on SLR cameras and also ensures your view is not obstructed between frames. For these reasons, TLRs are often favored as street photography or walk-around cameras, not to say Hasselblad 6x6 users don't have their fans.
