What it is
{"overview":"The Yashica LM is a twin-lens reflex (TLR) medium-format camera introduced in the late 1950s, shooting 6x6cm frames on 120 roll film. 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.","buying_guide":"The most common fault is a dead or inaccurate selenium meter, as these cells degrade with age and light exposure; check that the needle responds and tracks changes in brightness. Also inspect the taking lens for haze and separation, confirm shutter speeds fire cleanly (especially the slow speeds), and look for smooth focus travel and an intact, mould-free viewing screen.

Questions
Is the Yashica LM's light meter still reliable?
Many surviving examples have weakened or dead selenium cells, so the meter value should be verified against a known-good meter before relying on it.
