INTRODUCTIONThe Yashica A is a Medium Format Twin Lens Reflex camera. I was made in Japan by Yashica for 12 years, between 1957 and 1969. BEST SUITED FOR:
PERSONAL NOTESAfter the Ikoflex and the Ricohflex, this was my third TLR, and I fell in love with it. Cheap but good, the Yashica is a good quality but light medium format camera. I used it mainly for fun, but I remember doing some wedding photography with it too. CONCLUSIONIf you want to try a TLR without breaking the bank, this is it. PHOTO SAMPLESVERDICT:
