For Yashica, it all started way back in 1949 in Nagano, Japan, where they initially manufactured electronic parts for watches. The era of cameras followed, and they achieved their greatest success 16 years later with the Electro 35 model, which sold as many as 8 million copies. Then, in the 1980s, the brand was bought by larger companies and the trail was slowly lost. But now they are coming back. With a Kickstarter campaign, they want to coax the legendary Electro 35 genie out of the bottle. In a modern guise, of course.
Fotoaparat Yashica Y35 it is replika modela Electro 35 zgolj po videzu.
Za analogne zanesenjake in nostalgike so še vedno pustili ‘vrtenje filma’ po vsaki zajeti fotografiji, čeprav gre zgolj za manever, saj kot smo že povedali, da pravega filma notri ni. Ostane samo pravi občutek.
Ideja je romantična, kako se bo pa Yashica Y35 boril s kakovostjo fotografije pametnih telefonov, ki zavzemajo prostor vsakega žepa, bomo pa še videli. Na Kickstarter je cena zanj 120 euros, za različico Deluxe, ki so jo oblekli v usnje, pa 280 euros.
