I know officialy entered MF world. :smile:
Here are pictures of my Yashica Mat 124 G.A soon I take pictures, I will post them here.

Welcome to the world of medium format and Yashica Mat! :smile:

I recommend that you get a lens hood for the camera. It really makes a huge difference as regards image quality with Yashica Mat´s. Also try to avoid shooting above f/5.6 and below f/16. Then you should get uniform sharpness all over the image area.

As long as you don't love it to bytes. I've had people look at the Maxwell screen on mine and tell me it was a really nice LCD.

Ha ha. I was shooting with mine last weekend and had the camera down near ground level for a shot. I had to hold the spot for a minute and wait for the action to arrive, so apparently the guy standing near me must have caught a good long look ground glass because he asked me when I was done with the shot if it took stills & video, because he seen the LCD screen.

Or in the words of coworker of mine. "Wow! This looks just like real life!"
