Dude I found an Electro 35 in my grandpa's closet after he died and didn't touch it for like 15 years...just pulled it out a couple months ago and got it CLA'd. Now it's like my pride and joy and has sentimental value. Love it.
I bought a Yashica Lynx 5000e for 5$ at goodwill and it shoots incredibly sharp images. They used to market these fixed lens Japanese cameras “buy a lens get the body for free” because they put a lot of development into the lenses and made the whole system cheap by making the lenses fixed. You can fix your light leaks by getting some cotton yarn from michaels or some fabric store like that and putting in place if the old foam using pliobond adhesive to hold it in place. For the hinge area some adhesive backed black felt worked great. I think after yarn and felt I have about 11$ invested in my yashica.
@@BadFlashes you just need to scrape out the old dead foam and then of courser the yarn and felt needs to be black. it's a pretty easy job and saves you from having to spend more than the camera cost to CLA it haha
My method of light seals is a lot quicker and easier for a beginner, though not as effective long term. I use cloth sports tape and put 1/4” wide strip along the light seal area on the body or door however you can stop the light. This will work great until the tape dries out after about 1-2 years
This was my father's first camera. Love this camera. But it's becoming increasingly difficult to find film here in India. I don't have the light leak problem in my unit.
I have a gsn that i used for one year then something in the mechanism broke and the shutter stopped working. But yesterday i found the first 1960s version at a pawn shop for 25$ and it works
Yea you're right about the Leica stuff tho. I have 3 Electro's. 2 are broken but I took apart the 3rd and fixed the shutter release and re-soldered the battery connectors. shot one roll through it and never picked it up again. I've since had 5 Leica's
I got two 35's recently. The first was a parts camera that I removed the lens from and made an adapter for a Sony NEX mount and the second is a fully working GTN. It took a few rolls though it, but this seems like a camera I just have to 'trust' .. there is no indication of what shutter speed it's going to shoot at only the yellow light if its going to be under 1/60th of a second. These camera's also suffer from what is known as the 'pad of death' so every time I wind on, I'm listening for the 'thunk' -- it's so weird you would think that hearing that would be a bad thing, but it actually means the shutter is working! I've been super impressed at the quality of the pictures this camera takes. The lens is amazing and if you still have your busted camera Caleb, I would look into adapting it to a full frame digital camera for sure!
After using point and shoots I wanted a bit more serious camera, and the electro 35 was a great upgrade, I'd fully recommend it to beginners. It's cheap, (beautiful) and easy to use, but now I want to upgrade again to an slr with fully manual mode, which I might not have had the guts to do if not for the experience and thirst for more control thanks to the yashica. Also I only noticed that the long shutter thing was indeed a bit weird when I had my friend take a photo, he did press the button but no photo came up, I guess he couldn't tell how to press down enough to get that pic, that is truly tricky as you said. Btw you have very fun videos I enjoy the lighthearted tone they have! (:
I think you are totally right. It’s a great gate way camera to the next best thing. Bummer your friend didn’t get the photo though… next time with that née SLR ☺️ Thanks for the love and watching along 😍
Some cameras, you want them to be good... but they just aren't and are never going to be. Let them go. And I'm with you on the shutter thing. I had an EOS1n that had a spongey shutter button that I hated every time I touched it. I ended up getting a different 1n.
The meter In the camera is really cool, it allows light in until the film is perfectly exposed. Or it should anyway. I had one 10ish years ago and it took stunning pictures when I didn’t really know what I was doing. It actually set me up for disappointment when I got a manual slr because the electro did the heavy lifting and I learned I didn’t really get exposure. I still think the electro is a great camera and the lens and meter more than make up for the non Leica quality.
... soo many light leaks but so awesome! I’m just on my third roll, and now have the door gap taped with hockey tape after seeing my first roll. I’ll change the light seals eventually.
I've got the Canonet QL17 and it really is a fantastic camera. The lens is amazing and it takes really great photos. I got mine about 2 years ago and I haven't even touched my SLR since then. I know this is kind of an old video, but if you are ever looking to replace your Yashica, I cannot recommend the Canonet enough. The great thing is you can find them all day long on Ebay for $100. I'm surprised more people aren't using this camera.
That’s awesome you dig that camera so much. I have upgraded to my M6 so I’m not in a market for the Canonet BUT never say never. I do know they rock :)
Thanks! The shutter button of my YASHICA GSN has been down for years. Is it possible for the button to return to its previous state if I put a battery in it?
This was the first film camera I bought a couple years ago. It’s funny after using this camera I started using my dad’s Minolta x-370. To get that light meter to work just takes a tap on the shutter and I’m always scared I’m gonna accidentally shoot. The perfect camera with an integrated light meter I have yet to find.
I have two of those Electro 35's and I enjoy them a lot! Thankfully for me (knock on wood) no light leaks so far LOL. Yeah the batteries are a pain the ass.
I just got this camera and it looks awesome and I love the rangefinder thing, but I completely agree about the asshole shutter, I feel the same, the sound is so thing, im not sure if the shutter is stuck or working at all and moving aperture doesnt do anything inside the lens, so I have no idea whats going on and only photos can tell better. But im looking for a video where someone shows inside the lens from the front when you change settings and press shutter, that sometimes takes forever to click
Bro can someone tell me how much does it worth i have one and its in a mint condition but i dont have the thing that you out it in i dont know the name of it but it has no scratch
Beautiful camera - Super murky shots. I had an Olympus RC that made murky blue mud shots also 😱 I hope the Electro I have on the way makes nice images, some of the photos around speak to its lens being stunning!
Is it weird that I want to buy a camera that specifically has light leaks? For those moments that call for imperfections? Loved all the shots! The leaks and that little town worked together really well, so sad that it's broken now :((((
@@BadFlashes never mind on that I just went to my local camera store go drop off some film and saw an absolutely mint yashicamat g tlr I'll probably be springing for that beaut
I definitely agree with the shutter button. I even tried using my cable release once and the cable never triggered the shutter cause it came out short.
Haha ... Rode NTG-2 into H4n.... I updated my zoom h4n so now it can record in a higher bitrate... also positioned the mic to be in a better position.... glad you dig! 😆Happy Easter 🐰
I think you also should have fixed the light seals, these pics are just pointless & I can tell you think so too. Love the content & pacing though. Do you often fix secondhand cameras? If so, where would you go for that? I live in Indianapolis & I like sending my stuff to Du-All Camera in New Jersey. They fix anything.
I have one of these someone gave me. Had to resolder the battery terminals and replaced the seals but the thing works fine. I had a vague idea of doing a mod to add manual shutter controls but it seemed like too much work to get circuit boards printed for just one camera. Plus I couldn’t work out a good place for the additional dial.

You caught your foot on the strap? Gotta admit I never heard that excuse before. Very creative! It's ok, you don't have to tell us what really happened. We'll think the same of you anyway.
Bummer about the camera. I don't know how many near disasters I have had with a dangling camera strap catching on something or on me an trying to rip the camera out of my hands.
You should do another electro 35 video with the light seals fixed. It’s the lens and light meter that make this camera great not the shutter release. Put it on a tripod in low light and at dark, it does fully automatic long exposures incredibly well.
