Back from the dead! A little over a year ago I came into possession of this Yashica-Mat (serial 3891023) tlr with a Yashinon 3.5 lens. It was in poor shape, the shutter release button was gone, (photo 4), the shutter speeds seemed good, but the film advance was a little rough. A couple of months ago I shipped it to Mark Hama, five weeks later I received what seems like a new camera.
New shutter release button is solid and firmly in place, film advance is smooth, taking lens is nice and clear with a little dust, normal for this vintage camera. When I got it back, I flocked the interior
to negate the flare that Yashica tlrs seem to develop over time then shot a couple of rolls through it. Self timer works. Comes with a generic tlr cap.
$300 includes shipping, PM me for an international shipping charge.
