Nice
FRED here(It's okay to say "Gus") - Now, Caleb forgot a couple of things: The T3 is WAY MORE RELIABLE than a T4‼- Just like the GREAT Nikon L35AW (ActionTouch), NO problematic motorized lens TUCK & POP-OUT. That's the weak point of EVERY other Point & Shoot. He also forgot to mention that like the Yashica T4, the T3 is weather & dust resistant. Add to that, his was serviced - TWO things that the T3 requires is an internal cleaning of the weather resistant filter in front of the wonderful Zeiss glass (Out-gas micro-FOG from adhesives, lubricants & plastics in general) AND AUTO exposure recalibration (They usually waiver to the under-expose side)
🚀🚀🚀🚀
Good to know I don’t need to hide you 🤪
Thanks for those extra details ✨
I absolutely love the colors throughout this post. Both video and the stills, the greens were better than I would have expected, the wood tones glowing with rich yellow and brown, the sand was not boring. You make art out of common refuse and encroaching nature. Yes, that camera was a performer up to the task. I'm impressed with how you knew its limits and capabilities and got apparently the right framing over and over. I'm not crazy about film point and shoots because they tend to be rather approximate without the immediate feedback. Fascinating how the middle version got the fastest lens.
Appreciate the kind words. 🥰
I really never knew those color were possible with that camera.
Like I say in the video, I wasn't initially impressed with the feel but the results talk for themselves :)
The Tessar is one of the oldest corrected lens designs at about 122 years old. Its compact simple lens design uses only 4 elements with high corrective but low light gathering power, keeping it to a 2.8 maximum aperture at the widest but, as you found out, high performance! The Yashica cameras all around have the benefit of a cheaper build and less popular name being paired with top of the line quality Zeiss lenses. Recently tried the FX-3 Super (SLR) with the Zeiss Tessar 45mm f2.8 which is one of the most compact SLR set ups I've ever used and an incredibly unique lens rendering. You can get that whole setup for about $300.
So so sick! I’ll have to check it out
Picked mine up at a Goodwill for $14. Nine Nine like 4 years ago. I'm glad it wasn't hyped up years ago it really is the definition of hidden gem overshadowed by it's slimmer sister the T4. Tri-X looks really great with this lens, speaking in Leica terms if you shoot a lower ISO speed film the camera will start using the lens wide open and unlocks it's "character" mode with a slightly softer rendering. Ummm so good.
Love that so much
I LOVE how those photos turned out! What other cameras would get you similar results? How would the T3 compare to a Mju II for example? Super curious
I think the T3 is better than the mju quality wise ... but I haven't done a side by side unfortunately
@@BadFlashes damn, I need to get one then 👀
Lovely video as always. I miss the '90s when I shot lots of film and worked at a camera counter as a kid. Ever shoot digital alongside film to show how film captures a special look?
😍😍😍
Love your videos!!
Thanks, I appreciate it 🥰 and im so so glad
And omg. Thanks so much for your generosity and support 🥰🥰🥰
@@BadFlashesyeah man!! Glad to support!
An excellent blend of light, composition, film stock and dammit that camera did good man. And give yourself a pat on the back👍 What camera do you use for b-roll?
Awwww thanks yo.
And I use a Sony a74
The camera is silent when you keep the shutter button pressed - then run away😊- the motor winds the film when you release the button
OH ... that's sick!
Been looking for something to replace my Konica c35 Ef, this looks like the prefect thing! Hopefully can get one thanks for another excellent episode of BadFlashes
😮💨🥰🥰🥰🚀 yo welcome 😂
Great camera!
That shutter sound though⚠️😁
I have the even uglier sister the Yashica T2...
But the less said about 'her' the better!! 😮😳😁
lol ok I’ll keep it that way
Gorgeous images and colours, thanks for the video.
Glad you enjoyed it!!!!! Thanks
I've been shooting Canon DSLR for the last four years but thinking maybe time to get into some film stuff. Might start with a point and shoot.
That’s the way to do it!
Incredible timing, I just got one of these before a trip to another state in Australia after I couldn't find a decent working M42 mount camera in my local area. Great camera, great lens. Although mine is a little glitchy, it doesn't auto load the film when you close the back, it's either after opening the lens cover or pressing the shutter button once.
Bummer to hear. But definitely dope cameras
"mine is a little glitchy" - FRED hereYes, most Point & Shoot cameras with some age (a couple of decades etc.) like any precision Rolex watch, do require some service. Caleb's camera was in fact serviced before this review. Really the only TWO things that the T3 requires is an internal cleaning of the weather resistant filter in front of the wonderful Zeiss glass (Out-gas micro-fog from adhesives, lubricants & plastics in general) AND the AUTO exposure calibration (They usually waiver to the under-expose side).
3:28 closed captions for walking on gravel: Applause 🙂
lol 😝
That extra mile
Oh i love this, another one you might want to check out for a cheap alternative to a t4 if you haven't already, is the yashica t af. I got mine with a battery door that was broken for 20$, just gaff taped the bottom and its PERFECT.
Oooo I'll have to look into that, thanks!🙏🏼
@@BadFlashes I also have a YASHICA T-D which is the same one but just with a date that I don't use if you wanted to borrow it to just check it out for a video or anything 😊
I appreciate it. 🥰
Actually picking mine up tomorrow to shoot Vision 3 film in misty Berlin...
Sick!!!’ Have so much fun 🤩
That Lomo 800 film renders the colours quite nicely. Great video!
Right. So lovely
Would love to see you get your hands on a Konica Big Mini
Omg …. meeeeeeeee toooooooooo
@ if you wanna buy mine at a discount… 👉👈😏
Just looked up the price for Lomo 800 in 35mm.
Is it the first time you can hear someone’s head explode through a keyboard…?
I mean. Yeah I know
Just when I felt my camera collection was well rounded out, Caleb has to drop this banger. The photos you’ve got with this lil nugget of a camera are gorgeous too. Real fine. Ok back to scrolling the ‘Bay for T3s
Yeah it's a great little camera! 😅
Sorry 🤪
"scrolling the ‘Bay for T3's" - Excellent, but there are TWO things that the T3 requires for optimal results; an internal cleaning of the weather resistant filter in front of the wonderful Zeiss glass (Out-gas micro-fog from adhesives, lubricants & plastics in general) AND the AUTO exposure calibration (They usually age waiver to the under-expose side). Caleb's T3 was in fact serviced prior to this review - FRED here I own most every high-end P&S, but a Yashica T3 one of my favorites !
@@y2ktube Any idea how it would compare to a Mju II?
@@alittlezZzen - "compare to a Mju II" - Well, the weather resistance is a feature better than most P&S (because dust, debris & liquid contamination cause many issues). - BUT, all the tiny nylon gears with the fragile heavily motorized lens certainly makes these ticking-time-BRICKS (especially if they're 'bumped' as the lens is extended)
the way you're saying kyocera is blowing my mind
kosira
In a bad way??? lol
@@jordanscoots key-oh-sarah ?
That’s very impressive for a point & shoot! T2 quality, you reckon?
Oh. I’d reckon 😮💨
Holy cow you got amazing colors out of these photos!
Thanks so much!
Picked up mine for 100 cad. I love it. And small enough
Love love
Thanks for the review!!!
Any time!
Hi guys. Kyocera comes from the parent company name, "Kyoto Ceramics", so (unless you pronounce Kyoto as "Koto") "kee-oh-sera" is probably a correct pronunciation. Thanks for a fun and great video and say hi to Eric J at Freestyle.
💥💥💥😊 will do!!!!!
Happy Friday, Caleb!!
Happy Friday
I grilled some chicken for dinner. And that thing is a chunky boy. I recently stumbled into a Minolta Himatic af2 and love the hell out of it for similar reasons.
Oh nice!!!!! 😊
I must have sold a million of these back in the day with the only job I ever had - other than being a Pro - it was a terrific little thing
Billions 💰
My Ricoh R1 that I got in August is already dead... The temptation to buy another is there, but somewhat hampered LOL
Oh booooo… I’m so sorry that’s a bummer
@@BadFlashes ya know every point and shoot is a risk, I'm just happy it wasn't a gr1 lol. I replaced it with an old classic for me, the canon Snappy AF!! Kind of like this one, it's on the chunkier side but it's so fast and it focuses in practically pitch black (infrared focusing of some kind). It still on the hunt for a replacement small one though
I’ve had 3 dying on me. The fourth one seems a bit stronger but the top lcd doesn’t work and the frame lines are gone…love this camera though
Right !!!!! For all the flaws. It’s still so amazing.
"is already dead" - FRED here - Haha - Apart from the systemic LCD issues, there really isn't a reason that a Ricoh R1should STAY DEAD. That model has a tiny rubber belt that becomes contaminated from age & out-gas fumes. Simply pull the covers and clean that tiny rubber belt & the two pulley's with some solvent (located at the front below the lens). With that, the system checks and lens 'pull-out' will once again function
Not hating but what's the reason behind the nail polish?
Watch my Wyoming trip lol
@@BadFlashes I just did a dark olive green Lakur polish. Londontown seems to be becoming a new favorite brand for me in terms of quality. Also, you do you. I consider myself gender non-conforming. It's all silly. Men used to wear nail polish, wigs, makeup, tights, skirts, fancy dress attire. Someone invented trousers and it all of a sudden became "gay". Gotta love it.
Great video man!
Appreciate it!
Please tell me I’m not the only one who’s brain started unconsciously singing along to that song… 😅
🎶“Thank You for Being a Friend…"🎵
I could have sworn for a hot minute you were using a version of the Golden Girls theme 😂🤣
I wish… Demonetize so fast lol
Oh c'mon Caleb. You are now teasing me with the Yasica T3. So close yet so far from the Contax T3. #Contaxt3videowhen?
🤷♂️
"Contax T3" - Yes they're nice, but SUPER EXPENSIVE ! - Now, they both have f/2.8 ZEISS glass, but the T3 IS WAY MORE RELIABLE‼- Just like the GREAT Nikon L35AW (ActionTouch), NO problematic motorized lens TUCK & POP-OUT (That's the weak point of EVERY other Point & Shoot). Caleb also forgot to mention that like the T4, the T3 is weather & dust resistant. The Contax T2 & T3 aren't❗
I love cameras with extra viewfinders, they're super fun! I have myself a Canon Prisma Date - its a point and shoot that has a normal viewfinder as well as a waist level finder on the top somewhat similar to this one. The Waist level finder requires you to hold it within a certain range away from your eyes and above your knees(near your waist, shocker!) for it to be in focus, but it works great. It also have a little adjustable nubbin on the bottom to allow you to set it up on a flat surface at an angle, or a non-flat surface level, and has a detatchable IR remote to control the shutter! Its got a bit of a goofy shape just like this T3 does, so not many people pick them up because it's not an 'attractive' camera, but I leave mine in my hoodie pocket or backpack with me wherever I go, even if I've got a nicer camera with me just for some extra versatility. UGLY CAMERAS UNITE!
Weird review for the thing not even in the video aside, I love watching your content and seeing how much fun you have when you're out in the field and after when you're filming your talking head shots. You and Jason are two of the biggest reasons I jumped into film photography(was previously a Polaroid only shooter) and I really appreciate the work you put into your videos. Keep up the great work!
I appreciate the kind words, it makes me happy that I can share my passion for film with others. I’ll keep going if you do 😝🥰
picked my t3 up for 30€ with the missing plastic screen at the top. but I still love it ; )
What do you say now, strange guy from the bakery who said he would sell his mother's camera to enrich himself. muuuhahab
😝 party on
Nah I’ll keep with my Minolta’s and my Canon Z155 (which is one of my favorite pns) as for dinner, salmon, corn & green beans with biscuits. 😊
Nice. That sounds yummy
@@BadFlashes oh it is, one of my favorite meals to make.
"my Minolta’s and my Canon Z155" - FRED here - But this P&S is WAY MORE RELIABLE‼- Just like the GREAT Nikon L35AW (ActionTouch), NO problematic motorized lens TUCK & POP-OUT. That's the weak point of EVERY other Point & Shoot. Caleb also forgot to mention that like the T4, the T3 is weather & dust resistant...
Love me some good stuff… A.k.a. Templeton Rye!
The only good stuff around :)
Every time I see a vid on a P&S I am like: "Yeah perhaps I should try one again. Perhaps this time I'll feel inspired with one of those. Perhaps the handling of that camera will be better"
And then I have to aggressively remind myself I don't vibe with small electronic P&S cameras at all... 😅
Even the XA (admittedly not a P&S) with manual aperture I have gotten rid of.
My only point and shoot is my EOS-1n-RS
haha and that is a big one!
Yeah I get you tho
I think they have there place but not super professional stuff
13:32 i guess Indy didnt survive lol
😮💨😭😝
0:30 speaking of cute and slick 😹😸🔥🔥
😍😍😍
T3 Super was a great camera, more like the T4. And I had stir fry for dinner!
Sounds like a good dinner 😊
"more like the T4" - FAR FROM IT - A Yashica T3 is WAY MORE RELIABLE‼- Just like the GREAT Nikon L35AW (ActionTouch), NO problematic motorized lens TUCK & POP-OUT. That's the weak point of EVERY other Point & Shoot (Like the T4, Contax T2, T3, Minilux etc.). Caleb also forgot to mention that like the T4, the T3 is weather & dust resistant (Plus, his T3 was serviced)... FRED here
my dawg
😘😘😘
After watching all these videos, I've determined I need a hat
Everyone needs a good hat 😊
don't u ever keep the speakers on the same surface as the record player!
Are you saying not too??? Cuz there ain’t much room
🤩🤩
😘😘😘
Cameras don't lie.
They don’t.
wow that boy can expose (the yashica)
What about me … what about meeeeee 😆
Dang, you really like a healthy amount of foreground, eh?
The film advance sounds like it's fighting for its life 😂
it does, right
Shit I have the T2 and I love it
nice! does it sound the same?
Noodles!
😛😛😛
bacon
Eggs
went to freestyle photo and they were assholes to me not gunna lie.
Oh no. I’m so sorry. How long ago was that?
Just don’t drop it like I did. RIP T3.
Rip yo. RIP
Three different thumbnails. You gotta get out of the desert man!
lol never
Wow first?
🌮🥰🥳
@@BadFlashes my man, the shots look great 🔥
It’s the T4s ugly brother
But sexier lens
"the T4s ugly brother" - FRED here - It may be ugly, but IT"S WAY MORE RELIABLE‼- Just like the GREAT Nikon L35AW (ActionTouch), NO problematic motorized lens TUCK & POP-OUT. That's the weak point of EVERY other Point & Shoot. Caleb also forgot to mention that like the T4, the T3 is weather & dust resistant...
