Guest wally Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 I would like to know a little more about this camera. It's almost new, and it comes with 2 auxiliary Yashikor telephoto & wide alngle attachments. Does it expose correctly Tri-X and 64T in sunlight? I'm planning on shooting snowboard scenes, thanx, W.

Tron X Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Yashica Super 800 Electro Year: 1970-74 Lens: Yashinon-DX 1,6 / 7,5 - 60 mm Microprism Focusing Auto / Manual Zoom Frame rates: 12,18,24 + single frame Auto Exposure +/- correction for auto Remote control socket No sound 4 X 1,5V batteries + No separate battery for light meter Made in Japan Yes, this camera will expose Tri-X and 64T correctly. Be sure to post some footage of the snowboarding on the net when you're done. I'd love to see it. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Palidwor Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 An auto only camera is not a good choice for snowboarding as it will underexpose all the footage. Fortunately for you I believe this particularly Yashica has up to +2 compensation for auto, so you'll get by. Make sure you go to +2 when shooting snow scenes.
