Test shot with a Yashica Mat

A friend lent me his 1957 Yashica Mat twin-lens reflex that he rarely ever uses. The first film I ran through it was completely trashed because it was really expired old Ektachrome film. This second try, with fresh Velvia 100, turned out much better. All exposures were guesswork (as I still don't have a lightmeter), so I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out. The camera itself is a beauty - really well made, from quality materials, with all controls sensibly located, and apart from some gunked-up glue under the frontplate decorative cover, this one's still in great condition and perfect working order 55 years after it was built. I'll be sad to give it back to its owner... sniff!
