1960 Yashica M 1016213 SLR Camera + Original Leather case
Yashica 35 Model M, also known as the Yashica M and Yashica 35M, a 35mm rangefinder camera produced by Yashica starting in June 1960. The Yashica 35 Model M was part of Yashica’s Minister series of 35mm rangefinders, which were loosely based on the body of the earlier Yashica YL but adding an uncoupled selenium light meter. The original Yashica Minister had a slower f/2.8 4.5cm Yashinon lens, but when equipped with the faster f/1.9 lens seen here, the name “Minister” was omitted from the camera’s body and literature. The Yashica 35 Model M is a well built and very capable camera with an excellent lens that was produced during a high point in Yashica’s history. (Source MikeEckman.Com)
