Just picked up a nice Yashica Minister on EBay. I thought I was downsizing my camera & lens collection but this one kinda reversed the recent outflow of shiny toys.

Much to my delight it seems to work well even with cheap and cheerful Kodak Gold.

Here's the camera



and here are one or two off the first roll








and, oh, it's great to be back. I've been lurking but lacking the ability to digitise MF 645 images and not completely engrossed in photography.!

The Minister is a very solid item, robust and very easy to fix.
The price is very low because nobody seems to want an f/2.8 lens.

The Lynx 1000 is another excellent buy.
