The 645D production[edit]
I heard that the lenses (though not the external housings) were already produced by the time Hoya bought the company.
Secondly, I have read elsewhere on Wiki that the 645 was withdrawn from production http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentax_cameras#645D
Do we have citations for either of these? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.157.172.182 (talk) 18:50, 15 June 2013 (UTC)
- First Pentax 645 lenses had been available in 1984, decades before Hoya did buy the company.

Like most modern SLRs, it requires batteries to operate.[edit]
