Description from the seller
Very beautiful to almost like-new condition and well-working Yashica FX-1 SLR camera.
The unit offered here is a black-painted FX-1 model with no signs of use. (See photos)
These models are rarer and harder to find in this very nice and working condition.
Operates with a 6V 4LR44 battery (not included). These are fairly easy to purchase at a photo specialty shop or large department stores.
The camera body has no signs of use. It is in near mint to mint condition.
Everything works perfectly on this camera.
All shutter speeds from B, 1 sec up to 1/1000 sec function very well by ear.
Also in the automatic mode everything works fine.
There is a very nice and pure image seen through the viewfinder.
The film counter works excellently and automatically jumps to zero when the film door is opened.
ASA settings can be changed from 17 to 3200.
The self-timer works perfectly as does the depth-of-field knob.
What I did notice is that normally in the finder there should be indicators via a needle pointer for shutter speeds, but these are unfortunately not visible.
To insert a 6V battery you must pull the rewind crank up and hold the tube with the left fingers and at the same time rotate the black knob with the crank to the left. Once open, you can insert the battery with the positive side down.
The Yashinon lens is in impeccable condition. No scratches, no cleaning marks, no dust and no fungus inside.
All diaphragms from f/1.7 to f/16 work perfectly.
Focusing the lens is very smooth and without hiccups.
The camera will be delivered with:
Original Yashica lens cap.
The camera will be packed with utmost care and shipped with a Track & Trace number and insurance.
NOTE:
I always ship my goods with Track & Trace number and insurance to cover possible damage and theft.
If you cannot agree to this, please do not place bids.
Many thanks in advance.
