Description from the seller
Yashica 17 EE Rapid – Japanese 35mm rangefinder camera – 1960s
Beautiful vintage Yashica 17 EE Rapid, a compact and stylish Japanese rangefinder camera from the 1960s. This model is known for its solid build quality, sharp Yashica lens, and easy operation thanks to the EE (Electric Eye) automatic exposure system.
The camera is equipped with a bright Yashinon 45mm f/1.7 lens, prized for its contrast and sharpness. The exposure is automatically adjusted based on the ambient light, which makes this camera very user-friendly for both beginner and experienced photographers.
What is special about this model is the use of the Agfa Rapid film system, an interesting historical alternative to 35mm cassettes, which makes this camera especially appealing to collectors.
