The Yashica FX-D is " The little sister" of Contax 139 Quartz. Still, some people consider Contax to have a more solid feel. Probably because 139Q has TTL flash, and DOF preview, aperture readout in the viewfinder among other differences. It has the same rather small housing, similar features and a Contax/Yashica bayonet. The FX-D is well suited as second body for Contax users since the controls are placed in Contax-like positions on the body. In particular you find the meter control button on the front side.
