So far I've picked up 8 various models. This place has been a bad influence on me.rover said:
For James (since you'll end up with more), there's a seller on eBay that buys up old Yashica's, rebuilds them (cleans thoroughly, relplaces seals), tests them out and then resells them pretty cheap. If you start looking around you'll find him pretty quick.
So far I've picked up a Lynx 14, ME, two MG-1's, two Electro 35G's, a GSN, and have a few others on the way. I haven't thoroughly tested them all and have a few I'm going to send out for service but will say the MG-1 I have that has been serviced by Mark Hama is a real pleasure to use. I'm amazed at how much clearer the viewfinder is vs. the other MG-1 I have that while clean has apparantly never been serviced. I'm not sure how much better the Lynx is as it still needs to be serviced. I do have one Electro 35G that was serviced in 85 and it has the best vf in bright light. Honestly I like them all except my ME.
