The Lynx 5000 is the less-renowned sister to the Yashica Lynx 14, lacking that model's massive f/1.4 lens. For those willing to sacrifice half a stop of lens speed to get a smaller package, Yashica offered a Yashinon 4.5 cm f/1.8 lens instead.

One reflection of the size difference is the Lynx 5000's 46mm filter thread, as compared to 58mm on the '14' versions. The smaller glass diameter also makes possible a faster top shutter speed: 1/1000 sec. on this model versus 1/500 with the f/1.4 lens.

The Lynx 5000 was followed by the very similar Yashica Lynx 5000E, adding a revised "IC" meter circuit.
