| The Yashica Electro 35 GX Rangefinder Camera
This 35mm film rangefinder camera has a 40mm 1:1.7 lens, very fast, quite effective in low light situations without flash. Smaller than the Yashica GTN I also own, this camera feels very solid but compact in my hands, it is a beautiful camera to hold and shoot with and the photographic results are extremely pleasing to my eyes. This image of my GX shows the original Yashica metal lens shade (that was an optional extra I presume) the previous owner told me it took him forever to track that particular accessory down.
The black Yashica GX is actually the 2nd one I have bought recently (the first can be seen at lower right) - I can't help myself!
