Yashica Model A, Grey

Description

Have you ever seen one of those Yashica Model 44s, with the cool grey leatherette and wished that they had them in 120 format? Well, so did I, so I made one -- with improvements. I restored a wrecked Yashica Model A to perfect operating condition, repainted it and covered it in grey Griptac. The Griptac is a vulcanized rubber covering that is supposed to give you a much better grip. I can vouch for that; it does. Anyway, this thing is immaculate, inside and out, and it probably works better now than it did when it was new. As mentioned, it uses 6x6 cm 120 medium format film, instead of that 4x4 cm 127 film that no one makes anymore and it looks as good as a Yashica 44.
