I just shot a roll of Ektar 100 in a $90.00 Yashica I picked up. Also shoot a roll of Portra 400 new in a beat Rolleiflex T.
I think I'm done with 135 color. The first two are from the Yashica, the second two from the Rolleiflex T.

Could not get the Rolleiflex T photos in above. Here they are. No photo shop all straight out of the cameras. Film & scanning processed at 120processing.com.

No need to apologize! Just eager. I've got a Yashica C I picked up for $38 that I'm reluctant to try out because I just loathe roll film...but your results may sway me one way or the other. Cheers!

Only see two photos, so don't know which cam the second one is from. But they both look great. Which lenses does your D have? Yashicor, or Yashinon?

Nice Chevy! The lenses are good enough on these old cameras to make a very good image on 120 film.

Wonderful, but I'm not sure why you would give up on 35mm colour. Also Ektar ... Zuiko
Each format has its uses and place.

No I will not give 35mm film. It was just a comment as these looked so good me. I love 100 Ektar in 35mm.

Nice.
Ektar is indeed very good in 35mm. I've yet to try it in 120 (as there is probably one lab in the whole country that does 120 C-41 these days). I've seen enough Portra 160NC, 160 (new version), Fuji Pro 400 and Ektar to convince me I should though.

Just to be clear, I would shoot Ektar in 120 if I had a 120 camera. I have 35mm and 4x5, and don't really fancy a third film size. I do have a 120 roll film (6x6) back for 4x5, so maybe I'll shoot some Ektar 120 just for a kick.

I'm not sure Ektar is the way to go in 120. In landscapes it tends to produce an oversaturated sort of 'hypercolor' that's noticeably unrealistic in landscapes. Portra, in comparison, is more subtle.

The Yashica has a Yashicor lens 3 element. Still looks great I thought.

Oh yeah, nothing at all wrong with those images. Triplets are some of the most underated lenses, yet most give good results. Just wanted to know. BTW, for some reason, when your other two photos did show up, they posted ahead of my reply. Very strange.

I will be shooting the Yashica 635 quite a bit. Great little camera to keep in the car.

little? lol.
i've been shooting mine (just got it a week ago) and been surprised by how big/heavy it is to carry around in my satchel bag. i think just because i'm used to the relative flatness of my RFs, and the 635 is particularly thick regardless of how it goes in, due to the 35mm knobs.

Wow, your Yashica 635 has really nice results! I am still struggling with getting used to my Yashica and have had double exposures etc. Still a lovely TLR though.
