My rare Yashica-Nicca YF 35mm rangefinder camera set is available for purchase. It's the only dual-branded Yashica camera ever made. The set comes with the original Yashica Yashinon f/1.8 5cm LTM lens, a Yashica metal lens cap, and the original instruction booklet. Only one other owner has owned the camera (the original purchaser, see pic 10).
The camera and lens set are in collector condition. The satin chrome surfaces are like new and free of detracting marks or corrosion—there are only minimal signs of careful prior use. The Yashica lens is stunning! Under a bright LED, I see some dust, which is typical for a vintage lens; otherwise, there are no issues. The focus is a bit stiff from lack of use, but it is spot on, and the rangefinder spot and viewfinder are bright and clear.
If you are familiar with this camera, you know just how difficult it is to find one that is this nice.
Please check out my detailed pictures of this beautiful camera and lens set—additional pictures upon request.

The Yashica-Nicca YF has many similar design and handling features to the Leica M3 (especially the film flap), which makes loading film much more effortless.
*As seen in picture 7, the shutter curtain has come apart slightly. I haven't used the camera in years; it's been displayed in my dust-free cabinet. The shutter speeds sound accurate until the slowest speeds, which is again typical for a camera from 1958. It will require service if you plan to shoot film with it.
The instruction booklet is complete and in excellent condition. The original owner wrote the matching serial numbers on the inside of the back cover (see pic 10).

Yes, just let us know and we'll work something out. No need to pay for shipping more than once.
Yes, but with some exceptions. No returns on custom-made items. Part two - we will gladly accept a return within 14 days as long as it is returned to us in the same condition as when we sent it to you. Specifically, if an item is new and unused and in its original box and packaging it must be returned in an unused and unopened condition.

Always! Carol and I take great care (and pride) in packaging your purchase. We are mindful of being "green" but often times green doesn't protect your package properly. We have been shipping items safely since 2003. We must say, however, that we are not responsible for mishandling by the carrier(s) or loss of an item. Most items and especially valuable items will always have insurance added.
