Walking down memory's lane

Yashica Electro 35N was my first camera. It was a hand me down camera from my sister. I lost that camera when I moved to Australia. After some searches on the internet with 2 dud purchases, I finally found one that is working on eBay. It brought back a lot of memories when I was using this camera. It took me some time to get used to rangefinder manual focusing. It didn't take long for me to realise how we take auto focus for granted. However, I do enjoy the slowness of getting the focus right.
This time, I was shooting around Melbourne city capturing some stories as well as trying out on different subjects.
I also went to shoot some photos at the Moomba festival in Melbourne. It's an annual event that held during Labor Day long weekend in Melbourne along the Yarra river in the city. It has watersports activities, rides for the kids, food, music, parade and others. I shot some photos using different cameras in the past. But the memory's lane is reliving the experience using the camera. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The overall experience of shooting with the Yashica Electro 35 was enjoyable. The expectation of the 70's look on the images is kind of hit and miss. I have another 4 rolls of this film and will no doubt shoot with the film again using a different camera.
