    Yashica B TLR (Photos)

    Was curious about these old relics, and now this one surfaces in Australia. Plenty of interesting pictures and brass. Has anyone seen one up close? The 'A' model that I purchased on *bay recently looks new compared to this one.

    He stripped off all the leatherete n removed the chrome on all the beauty features. Sad example.
    Anyone can make a Digital print, but only a photographer can make a photograph.

    Also looks like an Elmar 3.5/50 taking lens -- wouldn't cover 6x6.

    Think the "elmar" is a mess up in terms of image uploading. It's probably a rebadged russian industar-22 - look at the aperture selector.

    It's an ugly one for sure. I have a Yashica B standing here (although the leatherette needs replacing) in much better condition. The Elmar doesn't fit in the line up..
    Sure, I could give you a boring explanation who I really am but I rather let the Origami do the talking.
