Great little 2&1/4 inch camera. Shot my first national ad campaign on one in the 1970's. I eventually went to Rolliflex and Hasseblad when I could afford them, but the little TLR really gets the job done.

Mr Nomad! Did you know Davy Crockett Used one of these Yashica cameras during the siege of the Alamo in 1836!? Using just one roll of Kodak Eastman 5222 black and white 35mm motion picture film he shot enough sprocket holes to stave off General Santa Anna and his army of 2000 men for THIRTEEN DAYS! Thank you so much for sharing! More people need to learn about the Yashica and its rich AMERICAN history of nearly 200 years. Learn more in my new youtube short "the untold history of the Yashica Mat 124G" Subbed!

Use it between 5.6 to 11 I have it and it’s great I also have the wide kit. My other camera is the 635 with the 35 mm kit. The wide and tel kits are great.

The "Telephoto" lens is not that useful. I have one, and it works okay, but resolution/sharpness isn't better than cropping in post! I also have the wide angle adapter, and while image quality isn't good (and lots of vignetting), you can't have wide angle on this camera without it. A warning regarding the battery compartment - it's sometimes damaged due to a rotten battery! But then you can get a bargain that still makes good photos …

Thanks for your review and insights to this camera. I going to look at one this weekend that looks to be in good shape! I'm going to try to give it a go look over before I buy it. Do you know if the locking up issue only happens when film is in it or can it happen just cranking through blank shots as I check it? Thanks again!

Your sample photos look good to me. I have a Mamiya TLR and have been considering getting a yellow filter. Your work has convinced me to make the purchase. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for the review. The images really showed how pleasing the square format can be especially in black and white. I didn’t know there was a bay to regular filter adapter available. A new tip for this 75 year old, thanks!
