Yashica Electro 35 GX
Tonight I swapped Dirk a 20 pack of Fuji Presto for a camera he was no longer needing; a Yashica Electro 35 GX.
(I don’t know if italics are needed, but that is how it is written on the camera)
He had it over-hauled recently, and on the way home I bought two LR44 batteries to put into their adapters and it looks to work fine. Thanks Dirk.
These kinds of small rangefinders are all anyone ever really needs for snapshooting (whatever that is). I’m thinking it will come along with me to Nebraska this summer for Color Photography.
More information can be found here and here and photos taken by Mark with a Yashica can be seen here
The lenses are great for color. You will be pleased.
And yes, the italics are needed.

Yes the electro is a great camera, although I regretfully only put a few rolls threw it. I’d dig it out if I knew what box it was in.
