Yashica Mat Medium Format TLR

Yashica Mat Medium Format TLR - Good Condition | Classic Japanese Twin-Lens Reflex with Lumaxar 75mm f/3.2 Viewing Lens

The Yashica Mat is one of the most celebrated and practical medium format Twin-Lens Reflex cameras ever produced — a beautifully engineered Japanese classic that delivers stunning 6x6 medium format images with a shooting experience unlike any other. The iconic top-down waist-level viewfinder encourages a slower, more considered approach to photography, while the sharp taking lens ensures every frame is rendered with clarity and depth. This example features the Lumaxar 75mm f/3.2 viewing lens for bright and accurate framing. Compatible with 120 film, the Yashica Mat remains one of the most accessible and enjoyable entries into medium format photography available today. Serial numbers: Body SR 58175 / Viewing Lens SR 44888.
