Hmmmm... That is big news. And, sad news, too. The article doesn't mention what's to become of Yashica. They've made some pretty capable good cameras over the years. My dad had a Yashica A tlr back in the 50's. I have a Mat and an Electro 35, both of which I use from time to time, just for fun, and the image quality is pretty damned good (but they don't focus very well - oops, that's me that doesn't focus well... <LOL>). I know Yashica dates back to at least the 50's, probably earlier. It would be almost as sad to lose them as Contax (but not quite). cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
