Yashica T3D

[Battou]

My newest addition to my 35mm P-Shooter Collection, This takes the place of the Canon in my briefcase.

I just picked up a Yashica FX-D a few minutes ago.

Hope your new camera works out for you.

I hope so too, The sure shot of mine has a serious vigneting thing going on. That kinda sort of leaves me looking at it for a more intentional use than spur of the moment like P-Shooters where designed for, thus I wanted something a little more practical.

I am finding information on it a little hard to come by but the Yashica name on it is one I have known for a wile so it's worth buying to fill that void.

Nice little bugger with an even nicer lens! Congrats.

 

[Sideburns]

Yes, I was doing research on Yashica, and not only does yours have a zeiss lens (obvs it says that on the camera), but the one I picked up accepts zeiss lenses...


Yay for us!

I'm kind of curious how the pictures turn out from your little buddy there...be sure to get some uploaded at some point.

Thanks, I am unsure what the going price on one of these is but I am fairly sure I got a good price though, It's from the same dealer I get most of my gear from and as usual it's in perfect condition.

*EDIT*
I might have to retake these pictures and get my cat hair off it Oops, I have got to work on that.

So am I, I'll have some tomorrow. They won't be anything spectacular (24 shots in fifteen minuets wile looking for things I have not shot in a heavily shot location can only yield so much ) but, I will have some to show.

Well....Talk about trial by fire. I just went out and took twenty one shots of a tree that just fell in the wind and rain. Regardless of how they turn out I am glad I had it with me.

Nice work! Always nice to have a camera for surprises.

I have not gotten the tree shots back but I'll see if anything is postable when I do.

so it works perfectly...though appears the lens is a bit yellowed? Or is there another explanation for that?

Yeah she works beautifully

Or is there another explanation for that?

I don't know, given the weather and the fact I had not yet cleaned the lens at the time there may be but it is possible the lens is a bit yellowed given it's age. I'll find out before long though, I am currently working on a fourth roll of film into it now.
