For Sale Yashica TL Electro X with Auto Yashinon DS-M 50/1.7

elcabezagrande · Jul 14, 2011

This camera is beautiful. It is clean inside and out, with a working and accurate light meter and shutter. The lens is excellent optically, mechanically, and cosmetically, with no oil, scratches, fungus or other defects. The chrome is bright and virtually unmarked, the viewfinder is clear and bright and free of any dirt or debris, the mirror and focus screen are both free of defects, and the battery chamber has no sign of corrosion. I have owned a number of these, and this is by far the nicest chrome example that I have seen.

I would like to note that this is an M42-mount SLR with metering, so this would be a perfect camera for anyone wanting to get into M42 screw-mount lenses. I have two TL-Electros (not the X variety) and love them.

I will extend my Sunday special one more day. If this doesn't sell by tomorrow morning, I suppose that I will be forced to keep this fine film camera. Sigh.

They are a sweet camera....I've got two already or I'd buy it myself.

I like them. The only reason that I am selling this one is because I have this one, too:

The black one is not for sale. It is my baby.

One last bump, same great price. But I will include a genuine Yashica cable release. And I will throw a working flash into the box.

Oh dang! That is really tempting. I brought one of these with the 50mm 1.4, and a zoom, back from Vietnam. Was a really nice camera. Still have some pictures shot with that cam, floating around. It will make somebody a real nice camera.
