Introduction
As you might now I’m a fan of Yashica cameras and lenses (the reason I started YashicaForum.com offcourse). It all started out with a couple of old rangefinders and reading about the greatness of ML-series of lenses on forum.mflenses.com … at the time I think it was the ML 24mm that was being discussed. I decided to get an adapter for Contax/Yashica and try this manual lenses on my Canon DSLR.

The purchase
I got this lens from Richard for free – thanks :) I also bought one on swedish ebay Tradera, just because it was so cheap and I didn’t wan’t it to go unsold. They are easy to find, buy one if you can!

The DSB range of the Yashica brand is not supposed to be that good. It was their lowcost alternative and single coated. But this Yashica DSB 50mm/1.9 has surprised me a lot. I love the ML 50mm/2, but it would be hard to compare these two. The DSB is a little bigger which makes it easier to handle the rings.

I will soon post some more on the yashicaforum.
