Scans from Yashica J-7 on Tri-X images

I’ve tested the Yashica J-7 for one day in Stockholm. The camera came with Yashinon DX 50mm/1.7 (radioactive thorium-lens) so I choose that one, nice to try the kit. I used Kodak Tri-X film which had 400 ASA. These are some of my favorites from this one roll (observe that this is scaned from negative with a not to expensive scanner, result in papercopy will certainly be much sharper).

I will probably choose this camera for Epic Edits $50-dollar film camera project. That makes step 1 and 2 finished.

    Looks very good Mattias love the chair, saw it on mf lenses the other day, which scanner are you using btw? I am looking for a scanner can you recommend any?

    Hey Richard! Thanks :) Naa, I’m using my old Epson Perfection 3490 Photo, first time I scan negativs - didn’t buy it to scan photos. But I don’t think it would be the best choice today … not even sure they make them anymore. Be careful to buy a scanner which has a loadingframe for the filmformat you use. I don’t think mine has slots for 120mm film, just 35mm negativ and dia-frames.
