Hi JesseS

What would you like to know?

It was one of theKyocera's line of AF mount (not Contax/Yashica mount) cameras that were well regarded in their day. Like the Yashica line ofmanual focuslenses, their AF lenses, while a little plasticky by comparison to the ML manual focus lenses, but were admirably contrasty and sharp, with well controlled aberrations.

The camera bodies, just like the manual focus bodies were regarded as innovative and good value for money.All modelswere available in both Yashica and Kyocera name plates.


I suggest you have a look here ....and use AltaVistas Babel Fish translation service where necessary.

Yashica family tree chart looks like the figure below.

Ask away for more info.
