The Fuji GS645S (1984) is a 6×4.5 cm medium-format rangefinder camera with a fixed EBC Fujinon W 60mm f/4 lens — equivalent to approximately 38mm in 35mm terms — making it a dedicated wide-angle compact for landscape, architecture, and travel photography. It is a direct derivative of the GS645 (which used a 75mm standard lens and folding design) but features a non-folding compact body with a distinctive raised sports-finder bump on the top plate housing the separate frameline window. The camera produces 15 frames per 120 roll (6×4.5 cm negative, nominally 56×43 mm), and the EBC (Electron Beam Coating) Fujinon lens delivers outstanding edge-to-edge sharpness characteristic of all Fuji medium-format glass.

Fuji Photo Film's professional camera division had developed the GS645 (1983) as a folding medium-format rangefinder — a modern revival of the classic European folder in 6×4.5 format. The GS645S followed in 1984 as a non-folding compact variant emphasising wide-angle coverage over portability-via-folding. The 60mm lens (wide-angle in 6×4.5 terms) attracted landscape and architectural photographers who wanted medium-format negative size without the bulk of a Mamiya or Hasselblad system. Fuji simultaneously produced the GS645W (with an even wider 45mm f/5.6 lens). The entire GS645 line was discontinued in the late 1980s as Fuji's focus shifted to the autofocus GA645 series (1993).
The GS645S occupies a specific niche that few cameras fill: a genuine medium-format camera producing 6×4.5 negatives with a wide-angle lens in a truly compact, rangefinder body. For landscape photographers, the combination of a 60mm equivalent-to-38mm lens, all-speeds flash sync, and a 15-frame 120 roll produces negatives that scan or enlarge to reveal detail far beyond what 35mm can match. The EBC Fujinon 60/4 is sharp to the corners at f/8 and beyond, with excellent control of distortion for an uncorrected wide.
The camera's limitations are its program/manual-only exposure system (no aperture-priority), the slow maximum aperture (f/4), and the absence of any mechanical fallback. But for deliberate, tripod-mounted wide-angle landscape work — the application it was designed for — these constraints rarely matter.
Fixed EBC Fujinon W 60mm f/4 (6-element Fujinon design, leaf shutter). No interchangeable lenses. Accessories: standard accessory shoe, PC sync terminal for studio flash, 46mm filter thread (67mm for some variants — confirm with the body), dedicated Fuji flash units, close-up lens sets (Fuji and third-party).
