The Lynx 14 is a solid and impressive (but far from small) rangefinder camera introduced by Yashica in 1965. Its unmissable highlight is an unusually fast f/1.4 fixed Yashinon lens, in a useful wide-normal 4.5 cm focal length. This monster takes 58mm filters, and protrudes quite a bit from the front of the camera. (For those willing to sacrifice a half-stop of speed for a somewhat smaller alternative, Yashica offered the Lynx 5000.
