Camera Porn - Yashica Mat-124G
Number two of my film camera porn series: My Yashica Mat-124G with the Yashinon 80mm f/3.5 lens. I came across this camera last year when I went to purchase a light meter from a photographer that was retiring and selling off most of his gear. I've had two Mamiya TLR's previously (which were stolen) and this Yashica looked like it had barely had a roll of film put through it. Due to it's age, there was a touch of fungus starting in the taking lens. However, the price was right and I immediately snagged it before anyone else could. It's had a CLA recently and I am very delighted with the results that I get with it. If you look in my set 'Medium Format' you can see shots that I have taken with this camera.
Be sure and check my blog write up on this camera at:
