Yashica Electro 35 GTN

Yashica Electro 35 GTN

Status: SOLD

SPECIFICATIONS

Lens: 45mm f/1.7. It's identical to an SLR lens. Yashica brands it as YASHINON. "COLOR-YASHINON" was added in 1968 for marketing, since color film was just starting to become barely affordable to amateurs. It's the same lens.
Optic: 6 elements in 4 groups, just like almost every SLR lens. Single-coated in amber.
Diaphragm: 5 blades stopping down to f/16.
Filter Thread: 55mm. (Optional 57mm slip-on hood.)
Close Focus: 2.6 feet (0.8m)
Finder: Always-bright framelines lit through a separate window. Auto corrects for parallax.
Meter: CdS cell above lens, not TTL. You must compensate filters by setting the ASA dial accordingly. Red OVER light means you're at 1/500 second or more. Yellow SLOW light means you're at 1/30 or slower; hold still or use a tripod.
ASA Range (ISO): 25~1,000.
Shutter: 1/500 ~ about 30 seconds. The slowest speed will vary with aperture: it can go longer than a minute at smaller apertures but only 3 seconds at f/1.7.
Maximum Speed with Flash (sync): 1/500. X-sync at all speeds, better than SLRs.
Battery Check Light: Yes, also illuminates frame counter and can work as a small flashlight.
Size: 6 x 3-5/8 x 3 " (152 x 92 x 76mm)
