There is also an adapter to use the Pentacon Six mount lenses on the Pentax 645. Kent Gittings

If budget is a big concern one of the great things about the Mamiya 645 system is that with a cheap adapter they can take Pentacon Six mount lenses. These are widely available and are very cheap. An Arsat 80mm 2.8 lens can be had new for around $50. Combine that with a $200 m645 or m645j body and you have a decent system.
