Forgive me if this has already been posted, but check out the Yashica photos at this website. The gentleman uses an Electro 35.
http://www.fsb.hr/~srudan/stranice/start.htm
Click on one of the seven galleries at the bottom of his page, then click "continue"
when the page for that gallery loads. You will then be viewing the photos.
You'll see beautiful examples of what the Yashica Electros are capable of.

Last Sunday inside the atrium at Hartsfield-Jackson Airport in Atlanta. Konica-Minolta Centuria 800 color print film. It seems to be a good fit with the GSN. The more I use them, the more I like both.

Hello everyone,
I am new here, and just found this thread. I have a Yashica Electro 35, my dad's old camera which he passed to me when he got a new digicam, and have only recently discovered again what a great camera it is.
Here's my website with two pages of Electro photos.
http://www.artemisworks.plus.com/electro/index.htm
Looking forward to being part of this great rangefinder "posse". 
regards

I finally got around to posting one of the test-roll shots from my new/old GSN on my website:
http://www.two-muses.com/arch/2005_09.html#000633
I'm really loving this camera (the sharpness and the colours are extraordinary), but am definitely still in learning mode: I'll give myself a major pat on the back when I get through 36 exposures without a single "underexposed" (lens cap on, stom-stom-stom) image! |

Thank you! The film? I had to think about this, as I have a vegetable drawer full of almost-expired and just-expired film that I bought via a Dutch market site, and I just grabbed one for the test-roll, but I'm quite sure it was Fuji NPS 160. I'll have to start noting this info - I miss the little square to hold the boxtop that my Nikon FE has...

Lynn just use a piece of masking tape. It is translucent and re stickable (is there such a word?) I just peel off the old box top and tape the new one to the back of the Yashica. Not the best but it works.

Hi Harlee
At the moment, Jorge, the site administrator and owner, is having some problems with the attachments data, following a move to a new server, and he has asked us not to post attachments just now. He'll let us know when it's ok again.
However, when things are back to normal, look for the "Manage Attachments" button, on the "Reply to Thread" screen, below the box where you type your reply. After you click on that it will open a small dialog that allows you to attach up to five images. Best to keep the images to low-res, 800x600 or smaller.

I've had my Electro 35 GS just under a month, I put new seals in it, cleaned it, made a battery holder from a roll of "sticky notes" paper and a spring, and lubed it.
I am really amazed at the quality of the photos! Great contrast and sharpness. I liked it so much in fact that I just bought a GSN, but have not shot any film through it yet.

Here is a recent one of my daughter at her cello lesson. It was taken with my MG-1. The lens is great, although it has a sticky place in its focus at around 6-10 ft. When I'm feeling brave I'll disassemble it and lube it.

Suddenly I got great Electro 35 GTN. After light seal replacement it is OK. Also the foldable rubber lens hood and snap-on lens cap (with cap holder) are purchased. DOF test is in my gallery (focused on the antenna's rod).
I'm using wrist strap with my DSLR and am intended to do the same for Yashica.
Happy New Year for everyone!
DOF test

Hi Charles!
I see my GS works good! Hope you are enjoying using it as much as I did reviving it!
Cheers,

Howdy Russ!
Yep, this GS works real nice ! The color shots that it renders tend to lean a bit to a blueish cast, but then blue is my favorite color. I am pleased with the photos I'm getting, check out my gallery to see color as well as B & W.
Charles
