Garden Delights

I took some images while testing my Yashica ML 50mm f1.7 Contax/Yashica lens from the late 1970s.

I used a K&F Concept adapter (C/Y to FX) to shoot with my Yashica lens. I’m pretty pleased with the results. The Yashica ML lenses are cousins of the much more expensive Carl Zeiss T* that were likely made in the same factory and facilities.

This lovely model was likely photographed while in the Japanese Alps in Nagano Prefecture. Yashima’s first factory was opened in the Lake Suwa region in 1953. The Winter Olympics were held in Nagano in 1998.
Pictured is the Yashica Flex C.
