I was lucky enough to come across this camera in near-mint condition for $50. It turned out to be one of my favorite cameras. The lens on this thing is gorgeous

Hi there! Was wondering if you have any similar rangefinder cameras to this, and if the viewfinder size is an issue for you!

@reallifecharliesmith4662 10 ай бұрын

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the GX model has a maximum shutter speed 1/500th second, CC and CCN were slower 1/250th of a second and supported slower film just up to 400iso.

I believe this is correct.

The GX goes to iso 1000.

Hey Man! I'm a follower of your youtube channel from Spain, your videos about the yashica´s really helped me. I have a Yashica electro 35 GX from my grandfather and Im starting to use it (I saw your video to get her cleaned up, thank you) The thing is: I want to try a flash on it but I don't have the yashica es20 auto and i can't find it so I don't know how it works because the other electro´s have a mode for flash but this yashica don't. I saw that the Hyuga 303G flash works well with the Yashica but before I buy this flash I want to learn how to use it. I don't know how to expose to the light of it because which shutter speed will the camera use? Will she know that she got a flashlight on? You are the only person that can solve this problem because I don't know about anyone with this camera. Thanks for your time and help. Really appreciate it.

Is it possible to use a 3rd party flash unit while keeping the auto-exposure functionality?

Thanks for your Great Reviews. Unfortunately I missed out on obtaining your camera. Regarding the battery adapters, did you make them? Also with the battery alternatives, will you need to adjust the iso as the battery's voltage change? Unlike mercury batteries, the voltage remains constant throughout the life of the battery.

Of all the yashica electro 35 cameras you reviewed, which one is your favorite?

The GL goes to iso 1600 The GX is virtually identical but only goes to ISO 1000. Booth use silicon photodiode light meters where as all the other models far less accurate and less reliable CDS (Cadmium sulphide) light meters. They also both use the 40mm 1.7. All others use the 45mm 1.7.

Hai, im new to this camera.. On my first try shoot, all the photo look shaky.. I already set the right asa.. What might make the photo look shaky

@japanvintagecamera8869 2 жыл бұрын

Choose a wider aperture and the shutter will fire more quickly, so there will be less blur. These cameras have very slow shutter speeds if you fire them in low light and a small aperture, the shutter can stay open for more than 3 seconds.

@japanvintagecamera8869 3 жыл бұрын

It may be dirty and the clip is stuck, or something got into it. I have a video showing how to overhaul a Yashica GX, it shows how to remove the lens and ASA dial, you can easily see if there is anything stuck in it.

Without a battery the shutter will fire at 1/250th of a second. It is possible to use the camera without a battery, but with a limited exposure range.
