Yashica Electro 35 GTN, Yashinon 45mm, f 1.7 in excellent condition. Very cool rangefinder camera from the early 1970s. Beautiful camera, looks almost unused. RARE find with box and all.


--- Only thing I could find is that one of the strap holders is a bit loose (on the film advance lever side). If to be used with strap perhaps one would need to unscrew and lift the top to securely fasten the strap holder from the inside (if possible, just a guess). Or have a repair shop fix it. But if you're not going to use any strap with the camera, it is not an issue. ---


I shot a b&w film with this camera, see images. The photos came out nice and I couldn't see any light leaks on the film. But I kept the case on at all photo shots.

For correct exposure you select your aperture and then press the shutter half way. You'll see either a red or a yellow arrow flashing in the viewfinder. Just turn the aperture ring until there is no arrow lamp visible. Then the exposure is ok.


- Lens glass looks good.

- Exposure arrows and lamps (red and yellow) work.

- Rangefinder focus works as it should.

- Self timer works.

- Battery check works.

- Batteries included.

- Original box, case, lens cap, strap and manuals are included.
