Dear all, I am new to 124G. I heard from some people that the shutter dial can should only be changed after the shutter (spring) is charged, otherwise the...
Thanks for the info. FWIW, I sent it off to Mark Hama after the shutter jammed a couple weeks ago. Figured the previous owner, who supposedly got a CLA done,...
Not true, that can't hurt anything. The only caveat I can think of is that the self-timer should not be used when flash synch is set to "M". That is because...
Greetings from a new group member. I just received my 124g from an uncle and the first two rolls I shot didn't seem very contrasty to me, so I opened the...
I had the same problem on the front of the rear taking lens. I removed the rear element and tried to clean it. Most of the haze came off but the lens was...
Hi, I just purchased a Yashica Mat on Ebay and I'm trying to find a manual for it. Does anyone know of a website with it? I managed to find a website with the...
Derek, When I purchased my Yashica Mat 124G off of ebay I went ahead and went to www.manuals2go.com, paid the $6.00 to get a .pdf file of the manual....
The operation of the YashicaMat and the Mat124G both are virtually identical. About the only difference is, you will not be using 220 film. I've used both,...
I've just spent an enjoyable last hour and a half reading most of the 634 messages that appear before this one, as well as detouring to the various galleries...
Hi yashica fans ! I am a new member of the yashica group but I am not already owner of a yashica camera. I use a Nikon FM2 for several years but I think I have...

Hello fellow Yashica TLR users, I too was becoming discouraged with the amount of spam that the yashicatlr group was receiving and was contemplating leaving...
Does anyone know where to find a wide angle lens for a yashica mat 124 and approximate cost? I am also looking for a lens hood. Do hoods for rolleis fit...
Hello everyone, this is my first post here, (hope it's not the last). I never used a MF camera, shot 35mm for some time. But I shoot a lot of landscapes and...
I am seeing them used on eBay. But forgot the cost. I have a tele - it was about $50 20 yaers ago and the WA was thre same. Some Minolta WA lenses may fit on a...
You can get them on EBay, like I did. Expect to spend between 50 and 100 dollars. Accessories for the Rollei, Minolta Autocord etc will fit, provided they...

I have a fair collection of Canon stuff too, with an AE-1 and FTb and literally a sack full of lenses. As for that yashica A, there is not much involved in...
