Recently I purchased a Yashica-Mat. Here are some pictures of the first roll of Kodak 400TX.

Good tones and I like the 1st image a lot. The 2nd could do with a bit of sharpening IMO.

Thanks, I like shooting with the Mat very much: Nice bright screen and easy handling.

The first picture is very well done. The location where the pictures were taken look great

Welcome to the world of the Mat. Which flavor do you have? I have a 124 and years ago I owned a 124G. I love mine, and I love shooting 400TX with it. I find that 400TX delivers a smooth tonality that provide my photos a very deep, rich look. 400TX and the Mat are just naturals with each other IMO.

I too prefer the first photo. Show is more! Cool

This is just the plain Yashica-Mat (so no lightmeter), probably built in the early sixties (see picture below) And yes, I like the Kodak film also very much.
