We’re back, after a nasty hack/virus/malware thing we can now get back to business thanks to Paul Burgess And Jay Verslus who helped clean and relocate the blog to better hosting!

One tip, don’t ever use one.com!

It’s been nearly six months since an update on analoguemasters but our flickr group kept growing with over 500 members and nearly 8000 images!

To celebrate our return to Analogue spotting how about a fantastic shot of children looking into the future by nineteenseventy4 shot on a Hasselblad 500C

Look forward to some new reviews and features!

Made in 1970, the Yashica Mat 124G is largely seen as a entry level medium format 6X6 camera. This Rolleiflex clone is a beauty to use, quick, light and with an inbuilt light meter. There’s something very special about shooting on a twin lens reflex, it’s less intrusive than a slr and people act differently in front of one. Hunt around for one and after a quick service you will not notice the difference in quality between this and a more expensive Rolleiflex.

I got mine precisely so I could explore medium format photography. Quite soon after I bought it I was given a Mamiya RB67 and that was then my camera of choice for 120 photography. In recent weeks however I have taken the Yashica out and fell in love with it! It’s lighter, prettier and the photos are great quality. If you can get your hands on one don’t hesitate to hand over the cash!
