pics from my new Yashica

So I got my first roll from the Yashica processed and scanned to cd (holy crap it’s expensive! I’m going to have to find somewhere else I think) and I’m pretty happy. Mostly I was just trying to put the camera through it’s paces so I could see how accurate the light meter is, how the lens performs wide open, at how slow a shutter speed I can handhold, etc. The negatives look a bit underexposed in some of the lowlight situations, so I think I’ll want to get a handheld light meter eventually, but for now I think it’s ok. Overall, I’m impressed. Here are a few samples from the roll.

    I have taken some of my best photographs with a Yashica and your first roll turned out great. I think that I like the first one the best though
