These cameras are awesome, got one for 26$ on eBay and the guy threw in a 40D he didn't know how to charge. I had to put a tiny piece of Al foil on the corroded battery cap. The meter works great even at night.

The fact you can still use it without a battery is clever as

@ditto1958 4 месяца назад

I had one for a short time and while I agree it had a nice sharp lens, I never really took to it. I was used to Olympus OM slr cameras and the Electro is big and clunky and in person looks somehow cheap and tacky. I probably should have kept it though, lol.

@JonnyEnglish-gu1cs 2 года назад

Hi Carmine just bought one of these here in the uk been CLA’D new seals and new POD all for £50 looking forward to shooting with it it’s as close as I am getting to a Leica these are getting more collectible with the increase in popularity of film photography thanks for sharing

Looks like a very interesting camera. I might need to try this out.

@tomc8273 2 года назад

Thanks Carmine, it really is a nice camera to shoot with, I just don't use mine enough. Nice shoots!

This video is from two years ago. Still using your Electro?? I have a GSN and my own adapter made from a 9mm case.

@CarmineTavernaPhotography 4 месяца назад

Yes indeed, the GTN is a power house

@michaelhernandez3084 3 месяца назад

I just got a gsn and sent it out for a cla due to pad of death, how long would you say the lifespan is once its ClA’d? I hope to get many years of use out of this beautiful camera

You will enjoy that camera...forever

@discojelly Год назад

By far one of my MOST SHARPEST cameras I have ever had ! I've compared negatives from the Yashica Electro 35 and those with other SLR film cameras and the Electro negatives are MUCH sharper! Great review sir!

Yashica knows glass 😊 I'm glad you enjoy my RU-vid channel 😊

Thank goodness for the FED huh? How would that park survive otherwise?

@blackfeather7686 Год назад

Really enjoyed this and learned a few new things too. Didn't know about the vented lens shade and the filter. Will have to pick one up. Need to dig my Electro 35 out again. Such a nice camera. thanks

@cwbaldwin61 Год назад

Great video; has me thinking more about filters, what to use and when. I have the GSN, in excellent condition, and can't even remember how I obtained it! But it is a gorgeous camera, attracting attention where ever I go.

Glad to help!

@rossoxenbridge7495 Год назад

I enjoyed your video and I really like those black and white images I see what you mean about contrast even though I have shot any black and white film as yet. Just a question for you I have the Yashica Electro GL which has the 40mm f1.7 lens vs the 45mm f1.7 do you think the lens hood that you are using would still ok and not cause any vignetting with the slightly widerlens ? I haven't been using any hood as yet but I want to get one that is suitable and not cause any issues. I haven't really had any issues with flare but I am careful to keep direct sunlight off the front of the lens.

@CarmineTavernaPhotography Год назад

Hello, Sorry I do not have a copy of the GL, however, I strongly think the hood seen in my video will work fine..best of luck.

@TrilobitesRTasty Год назад

Fascinating story about the Yashica. Never heard of this. 🙂

@dannypoet4257 2 года назад

Hi Carmine, infomative video, I have just purchased a GSN so your vid is very helpful. Can I ask if you made any compensations when using the orange filter - I'd be worried about underexposure, interested in your thoughts. Also, which vented lens hood do you use? are they easy to get hold of? Thanks

@CarmineTavernaPhotography 2 года назад

Congratulations on your new GTN.. as far as the orange filter I did open aperture one half stop..the vented metal lens hood are around ten bucks on Amazon ❤️

@dannypoet4257 2 года назад

@@CarmineTavernaPhotography thanks, that's helpful, still on my first roll, looking forward to seeing the results

@dalex60 Год назад

What adjustment did you make to compensate your exposure for the filter?

@CarmineTavernaPhotography Год назад

The warming effect of this filter requires a 0.6-stop increase in exposure for normal results.

@dalex60 Год назад

@@CarmineTavernaPhotography - Since the shutter speed on the GTN (I have one) can’t be adjusted, I’m guessing the ASA would have to be slowed to compensate?
