A quote from the discussion on that forum:

Yashica seemed to use fairly simple labeling when it came to both model and part numbers before Kyocera and their marketing madmen got involved, so with that in mind...
My guess is there was a basic name change that came with the change in mounting - from Yashinon DS (single coated for M42), that evolved into Yashica DSB (single coated for C/Y), where 'B' was the 2nd iteration. At the same time the mount changed, they dropped the 'nicknames' for optical diagraming (Yashinon, Yashikor, etc.); so that everything was just "Yashica" or "Yashica Lens", plus a 'lens model / coating type' lettering combination.
If you add the YUS and MC lenses into the mix after the switch to a bayonet mount, it starts to get real messy. The YUS line was the uncoated and discounted end of the spectrum, and the MC lenses were multi-coated, but I presume they were not using the same AR coatings the ML line used, but maybe just dual/triple HR coatings.

OK, the "B" part of "DSB" is tentatively explained. So the "DS" still needs to be discussed, right?

If you want to make a video about it, you should use the lens yourself, shooting in different situations, and compare it with other lenses. If you cannot report your own findings your video may not be convincing ...

Of course you are in charge, but I often test center- and corner performance @ infinity @ different apertures (for landscape purpose), and then maybe central sharpness & bokeh at close distance subject. A comparison with another well known vintage lens is probably most interesting for most people. |
