Yashica LM

The Yashica LM is a twin-lens reflex (TLR) medium-format camera introduced in the late 1950s, shooting 6x6cm frames on 120 roll film. It sat in Yashica's TLR line-up as a more affordable alternative to the Rolleiflex, with a built-in uncoupled selenium light meter that gave the 'LM' designation its meaning.

At recent UK auction, Yashica LM hammer prices have been modest, with recorded results of £20 and £69 — wholesale saleroom levels rather than dealer retail. As of today in 2026, what the camera sells for is heavily condition-dependent, and working selenium meters typically lift value toward the upper end of that range.
