"Sold"YASHICA 635 DUAL FORMAT TLR CAMERA MEDIUM FORMAT
-
This camera & case are in very good condition and fully functional. There are signs of normal usage but for a camera of this age they are minimal. The glass is clean, clear, and free from scratches on both lenses. The leaf shutter is snappy.. The focusing is smooth. It comes with original metal lens cap,leather case & strap together with the 35mm conversion kit in its own leather case (these are hard to find and alone sell for €75/100) , also not in photo metal lens hood, cable release and original instruction booklet!
In 1958, Yashica manufactured a one and only dual format TLR, the Yashica 635. What makes the Yashica 635 so special amongst TLRs, is it’s ability to take 6×6 on 120 rollfilm and 24x36mm on 35mm film (with optional adapter kit). It has an all metal construction and is very durable. It is great for portraits, architecture, and scenery. It has a beautiful Copal MVX leaf shutter with speeds of 1 to 1/500.It has a PC connector for flash sync, and because it uses a leaf shutter it is capable of X sync at all shutter speeds. It has a coated 3 element Yashikor 80mm f/3.5 lens. It accepts bay 1 filter and hoods. Shutter speed and aperture are controlled by turning small dials on the front of the camera just above the taking lens with readout showing their settings above the viewing lens so they can be viewed while looking in the finder. It has a frame counter, and film is advanced by manually cranking the film advance knob until it stops turning.
