Ready to go...!
Ready to go...!
I own this camera since early 2000's. It was a gift from an old man who knew my photographic passion. I tested it, it worked...and then left it on the shelf....
Actually I'm back to film photography after >10 years of digital and (as you can see below in my signature) G.A.S. hit me hard.... :angel:
I saw (here and on Flickr) a lot of great shots made with this camera but unfortunately, mine didn't work as the old mercury battery was out of order(but still inside).
Finally, yesterday arrived the adapter for the new batteries... and everything seems to work fine.
So, I'm ready to go for the new life of this great camera... 😀

That is an incredible collection! But where are the SLRs (more money to spend of course.)?
Is the 1959 in your online name your date of birth or when you started on your Yashica journey? ;-)

My recent addition, just CLA'ed. I just cannot resist the black Yashica's. Had to add just another one to the collection 😀.

From Electro 35 to MG-1, black Yashicas just look so good.

I just bought a GL and even though it's similar to the GSN, I like it so much more. I like the meter placement, the fact that the ASA setting goes up to 1600, the 40mm focal length (versus the GSN's 45mm) and that it's slightly smaller, but the thing that clinched it is that it's better balanced than the GSN. The GSN has too little weight in the body to compensate for the weight of the lens, in my opinion. The GL has more weight in the body and just handles better.
