  • Yashica MG-1

    Do I detect a certain snobishness about your comments about flash photography? The MG-1, like a lot of budget rangefinders, has leaf shutter in the lens so you have flash sync at all speeds. You can find the manual for this camera, here:- butkus.org/chinon/yashica/…


  • Flash photography can be indispensable and has a variety of creative applications. I took the time to learn how to use it with all my cameras and wrote a well-received guide on it here: analog.cafe/r/a-simple-gui….

    I typically avoid it (flash) because it introduces more gear, a look that isn’t always personally desirable, and a bright burst of light that can be startling/distracting.

    I doubt the author meant it as a snobbish remark.
