Hi, I bought my lens hood on ebay but you can buy it cheaper from the guys store at www.thecamerahunter.com. Although using your hand to shield the lens is a...
I just got my Yashica-Mat LM camera off ebay and it didn't come with a case or lens cover--in fact it came in a really dirty Camel cigarettes cooler pouch...
Thoses scratches were certainly caused by a bad cleaning of the front lens... It shouldn't be a big problem, even if you may have a kind of loss of contrast...

I'm not sure...this is after I had cleaned it--the lens was actually very clean/clear to begin with. Wouldn't the fungus come off after cleaning? Perhaps too...
Yes, I found that using the lens hood is very important. You might be able to pick one up on Ebay. It is a Bay-1 bayonet mount. Or you might want to take the...

Hello All I just received my Yashcamat 124 lens hood (Hama), with 49mm filter adapter. However, what do I need to be able to attach 49mm filters to my ...
Well either someone online had some wrong info, or there were some 124Gs with 1/1000 (it was a 16 yr production run, so its possible some have it) I would say...
