Thinking about Yasuhara

[chrissy]

Hi I'm contemplating getting a Yasuhara T981.
Does anyone have any suggestions about whether or not I should?
Or, for that matter what other cameras I could get. I'm quite the newbie but I don't mind investing!

since this is a RF, i think u're more likely to get an answer here than AP.

i also thought of getting. but other than its retro cool styling i cant justify why its better than the bessa series of cameras.. plus its quite expensive. has known issues on the shutter not being light tight but if you dont mind it then why not! its a cool 'rare' camera.. pops up on ebay once in a while.. might get a better deal there.. but for usability.. i suggest bessa r for ltm and bessa r2a for m mount..

I don't think it's a good user. Other then the known problem with the shutter, there's an open space near the rangefinder which allows dust to get in. Best get a Bessa R series or other LTM mount cameras.
