The Yashica D is a medium format TLR camera produced by Yashica in Japan. Early models were equipped with a coated 3-element Yashikor 80mm f3.5 taking lens, while later models had the higher-quality, 4 element Yashinon 80mm f3.5 taking lens. Early models had a Yashikor 80mm f3.5 viewing lens, while later models had a Yashinon 80mm f3.2 viewing lens. The last Yashica D models were equipped with bright 80mm f2.8 Yashinon viewing lenses; models with this viewing lens and the Yashinon taking lens are very desirable on the used market.
It makes a 6cm x 6cm photo on 120 roll film, and has a Copal shutter, with shutter speeds of 1 - 1/500. It provides a PC connector for flash sync, and because it uses a leaf shutter it is capable of X sync at all shutter speeds. Make sure to set the flash switch to the X-position when using an electronic flash. The M setting is only used for the, now obsolete, flash bulbs.
The taking lens is accepts Bay I filters. Use a Bay I hood to prevent flare.
Operation
Shutter speed and aperture are set by turning small dials on the front of the camera just above the taking lens until the appropriate number appears in a window on the top of the viewing lens. Film advance is performed by manually cranking the advance wheel until it stops turning. A small frame counter is visible on the side of the camera near the film advance knob.
Since the camera does not have a light meter, use a hand-held light meter or use the sunny-16 rule.
Use of a cable release requires a Leica nipple.
