CITIZEN COUTURE – A YASHICA SERIES

July 7, 2010

It’s sad to say that my Yashica film camera was stolen in Sydney for fashion week, so this would be my last “Yashica” post. I had a great run with it, but maybe it was a sign for me to move on to something better. I love how practical the Yashica was and how the plastic casing allowed me to be a bit more reckless with it. However, I found the shutter lag and the periodic unwinding of film halfway through the roll an annoyance. After doing extensive research, I decided to splurge on another film camera, the Contax T3. It’s certainly a significant upgrade from the Yashica T4, which means I’ll have to put more care into it.
