I have desired to get into medium format AND a waistlevel view finder camera for some time now, however it can be expensive. I finally found this Yashica-A 120 film TLR camera for sale locally and decided to pick it up for just $65! I am thrilled to get into medium format at such an affordable price point.
I reccomend everyone considering waist level view finders and medium format cameras start here!
This camera is all mechanical, which means it has no light meter. However, being all mechanical, there is less of a risk that an electronic part fails (which is common on older cameras) and it is water resistant!
I highly recommend this camera to anyone who is interested in shooting film but doesn't have a ton of extra money to burn.
Thanks for watching, and as always, a like or comment helps thr algorithm, and subscribe if you are interested in seeing more film content like this!
Cheers!
