A Quick Roll with the Yashica MG-1 and Ilford Delta 100
We snagged this Yashica MG-1 out of an incoming consignment long enough to do some research on it that produced the exhibit this piece resides within. Usually when this happens the camera gets photographed and researched and then returned from whence it came. But in the case of this MG-1 it amazingly enough still had an active 5.6v battery in it. We took this as a sign and quickly made the choice to load it up with a roll of Delta 100 and take it out for a short week of fast photography. In situations like this you can never spend quite as long with a camera as you might like, but we wanted to do a bit more than just a sprint around the block which is often good enough only for mundane, relatively boring images. This isn't to say that we knocked it out of the park with any of these photos, but we wanted to give it enough time to really let this pair have a chance to show some of their combined character.
