Yashica 8mm film movie camera from 1961. Fast f1.8 Yashinon zoom lens. The camera sold for around $140. in the early 1960s.
Complete kit. BTW, the little hang tag from LIFE depicts a cover from 1947.

Here’s a bit of throwback photo gear from my collection – it’s time to pass it along. This one is very lightly used and was actually on display with one of my 1970s Yashicas. It’s about 1.5 inches wide and about 36 to 40 inches long as it is adjusted now so it’s a nice long camera strap that’s perfect as a neck or shoulder strap.
It has nice leather accents and the metal clips are shiny and bright.
Great colors and an awesome vintage pattern.
It holds two film canisters (film cans if you’re going old school) and the underside is a soft suede-like material.
It’s available in my studio shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com – lots of other neat items in the shop at 10% off too! – Chris
