Condition Note:

As is common with many Yashica FX-3 cameras, the original faux leather covering on the body has worn over time.

While this alteration does not affect the camera’s functionality in any way, it adds a unique vintage character that enhances the aesthetic appeal of the camera.

Though there are some small dust specks visible in the viewfinder and lens, please rest assured that this camera has been thoroughly tested and fully inspected to ensure it operates flawlessly. All functions, including shutter speed, light meter, and focusing, have been carefully checked, confirming the camera’s perfect mechanical performance.

The lens, a Yashica 50mm f/1.9, is in excellent working condition, providing sharp focus and great performance for portraiture, street photography, and general purpose use. The camera also comes with its original leather case, providing extra protection for both the body and the lens.
