i know im all over the place with my spending spree, but im thinking of grabbing a yashica electro cc
thing is, its only aperture priority (not full manual) and its settings are very limited. iso up to 500 only. shutter up to 1/250 only (but also all the way down to 8 secs)

what i wanna know is is there a way to override the exposure settings? like under expose etc... cause essentially, noone wants a fully exposed low light cause it would look like day time.
i read you can change the iso setting from what youre actually using for limited exposure compensation
ex:im using a 400 film and i set it to 500iso, this will under expose.
is that correct? and by how many stops will it underexpose?

bro, don't even worry about the meter on that camera, it's the definition of perfect. I've never seen anything that exposes as perfectly as an electro 35.
It does kinda suck that it only goes up to 500, but don't even worry about the aperture priority only thing either. Those cameras are more pleasing to use then anything else I've ever used.

If you can get that at a decent price then get it, don't even think about it, just get it. You might want to look into getting an electro35 gsn while you're at it.

Pic related, it's a repost, but it's the kind of exposure magic that the electro 35's can do.

cool shit. i just really wanted it for its tiny ass size (4.5 inches wide) its all black and 35mm 1.8
its also apparently rare. dude brought it from japan and wants 80 for it

btw i always see the GSN on our local classifieds and never this
maybe ill grab it down the road

[kmcdon3960]

yeah they're pretty rare, for that price I'd be all over it

It's not that small... I'd get an Olympus SP just because it's manual. Yeshicas are so hard to find in perfect working condition...

i dont think i have seen an SP on the local market

i do want a decent priced RC or a canonet QL17 though

considering this is coming all the way from japan, id take a guess that people know how to respect their cameras down there..
maybe even bring a geiger counter with me when i check it out :/

haha word, she was quite a steal. Her and I have both been born and raised in San Diego, CA. Her family is from Vietnam, though.
