After more than a decade of yearning to get a medium-format camera, I finally got my hands on one. It is a Yashika 124 (6cm x 6cm) TLR (twin lens reflex) camera built in 1968. It has a f/3.5 80mm lens (f/2.8 viewing lens) and a super-smooth leaf-shutter. It is amazing how well it still works after all the intervening years, and all that without a battery in-sight! The photo's are ultra-sharp and the detail is mind-blowing. What a great piece of kit and history. I love it. I will post some digital scan's next week.
