I'll be sure cite it when someone asks "why would you want to use that hunk of junk?" I just bought the exact same model Yashicamat from a nice guy in Hawaii for $30. After $11 shipping here to Little Rock, AR I'd say I made a great $41 investment. I need to clean the shutter mechanism, but thats one of those labors of love. It'll look great next to my wife and I's matching Rolleiflex Automats. I wanted something I could load with color to carry with me when I have B&W in the Rollei. I have a feeling I'm gonna collect a few of these as time goes on. Love the article!

I bought a Chamonix 4x5 last year (a couple of months before I bought your Panny G1) and I too love the slow, deliberate approach - I find it extremely relaxing and almost therapeutic! Yesterday at Garry Point Park I too got a few looks from people while using it.....and I get 300MB scans! (which necessitated building a new Mac clone) Great articles, keep it up!
