twosday 2 fer – Random Yashica

October 11, 2022October 11, 2022Chris and Carol 2 Comments

A couple of images were recently “discovered” in my image files.

The Yashica Pentamatic ’35’ was Yashica’s first 35mm SLR. Designed with the assistance of Nicca camera which Yashica acquired in 1958.

The Yashica Flex S was the first TLR (twin-lens reflex) to have an attached but uncoupled exposure meter attached. The Minicam flash was a very popular flash unit in the mid-1950s.

*BTW, these two filters sold to the same collector on my Mercari selling page within 12 hours of posting them! They are hard to find in this condition and this size.

Yashica 55mm Y2 filter for black & white images.

Yashica 55mm 1A ‘Skylight’ filter for color and B&W photography. It’s perfect for lens protection too.

New construction – twosday 2 fer

Another new development is going on here on Amelia Island just down the street from the beach. So far the builders have left the native trees alone (for the most part) and the type of construction with the raised foundations should allow the roots to breathe.

Taken in June 2018 right after the original house that was there was torn down.
