Is a Yashica Pentamatic, loaded with one of my last rolls of Agfa APX100. Since I don't have a Pentamatic standard lens, the camera is wearing a Pentax 55mm f2 lens, fitted to a Pentamatic to M42 adapter. Also in the outfit - a Komura 35mm f2.5 M42 lens, that was fitted to the mount adapter when I bought it, and a Super Yashinon 135mm f3.5 Pentamatic mount lens. Light metering is by a Sekonic Auto-Lumi.  |

Your outfit is impressive, but I yearn for APX 100.

Here are two shots, taken with the Yashica. The top one shows I have a problem with a light leak, probably along the shutter edge.   |

Pentamatic was the first SLR made by Yashica ( I believe in 1960). In fact , there are three versions of it : Pentamatic, Pentamatic II, and Pentamatic S. The latter has selenium light meter facility and uses the same type of meter Penta J ( subsequent model of Yashica SLR) was fitted for.
I own all three in fully operational condition plus some native glass ( 3.5cm/2.8 , 5.5cm/1.8 , 13.5cm/2.8 , 13.5cm/3.5), bellows , and lens adapters ( Exakta to Pentamatic , M42 to Pentamatic...)
I will post some pics as soon as I figure how to upload them from my hd.....
