Yashica FXD SE Quartz
Yashica FXD SE Quartz Black / Brown Smooth
Ultra-rare "Special Edition" version of Yashica FX-D in black, just restored for you and ready for action. Arguably the best camera of Yashica FX series, FX-D is a simple-to-use film SLR for anyone looking to get into film photography or as a cost-effective body to mount high-quality Carl Zeiss or Yashica lenses. It features aperture priority mode, AE lock and a smooth metal shutter. Very light and ergonomic camera. This particular camera is very seldom seen - only about 10% of FX-D's were "Special edition" and 90% of those were chrome - black-body SE cameras are very rare.
Shutter fires accurately at all speeds, film advance, timer, rewind and meter all work great. Viewfinder and focusing screen are bright and clear of dust. Light seals and mirror guard were replaced with brand new foam and felt ($25 value). Very few tiny scuffs throughout the body, but nothing that will attract attention or affect function. The camera comes with a genuine Yashica viewfinder cup and was refinished in a a beautiful and classy Brown smooth genuine cowhide leather.
This camera is equipped with Yashica DSB 50mm f/1.9 - a sharp and compact prime lens. Glass is scratch- and fungus free, all rings rotate smoothly, aperture is oil-free and works great. A set of fresh batteries, Hoya UV filter, generic front lens cap, original Yashica camera case (in fair shape) and strap are included.NOT TESTED WITH FILM
