lookie here



I just ordered this beauty. We are required within my department to have a medium format camera.

This is a twin lens, medium format, 120 film camera.


"Made between 1956-1961, the Yashica LM is similar to the Yashica C but has a built-in uncoupled selenium light meter under the hinged nameplate. It has the 3-element design, coated, Yashikor 80mm f/3.5 lens with a Copal MX 1-300 shutter.

This is an absolutely outstanding camera. The lenses are beaitfully clear with no scratches. The focus is smooth. The shutter fires nicely on all speeds. The self-timer works perfectly. The meter is working nicely but we know it cannot be considered accurate when compared to a modern light meter."
