electro35
Newbie
Hello everyone. Brand new to this forum, but not to the legendary Yashicas. Been using the Electro 35 GSNs since the mid 90's when my granddad passed and I got his minty GSN. That camera was unfortunately stolen in Japan while I was visiting, but has since been replaced with a GT that I picked up for $77 on ebay. It came with a new Interstate battery, all the electronics are functioning flawlessly. I popped the top cover and cleaned the glass and inspected the pad of death, which to my surprise, is pristine. Got the light seals replaced last night, and am running my first roll of film through it.
Last night I also won an ebay auction for the Auto-Up lens. Has anyone used this before? Paid nearly as much for that thing as for the camera, but it comes with the case and original instruction book. I was intent on winning that auction, lol.
I also have the tele and wide angle lenses, with the viewfinder, a original yashica hard case, the shutter cable, and have a flash/mount on the way (another ebay auction).
All I really need now is the ST-7 mini tripod. I had one, but it got stolen with the GSN in japan 😡 Anyway, glad to be here, will share photos as soon as I have some.
