Whether you are new to analogue photography or you have shot vintage cameras in the past, this book will help you make a success of buying and using the Yashica 35 range of cameras. Besides Richard’s experience with the cameras, you will find re-prints of original guides and manuals that will help you buy, use, maintain and repair your camera. The Yashica rangefinder cameras are all equipped with high-quality lenses and great features from the all manual 35W to the aperture priority Electro 35. They provide a quality alternative to SLR and point & shoot cameras producing the rich colours and atmosphere that many will say only film can deliver.

These cameras capture the most enjoyable aspects of film photography, and the experience will help you become a better photographer and create some super results.

To accompany the book, the author has created a dedicated web resource page that will help you find even more information such as battery conversion sources, film suppliers, user generated galleries and much more.
