What it is
{"overview":"The Yashica Samurai Z is a 35mm half-frame autofocus camera with a vertically oriented, SLR-style bridge body. These are wholesale saleroom results rather than retail figures, and as of 2026 the model remains an affordable entry into half-frame shooting, though cosmetic condition and a working grip-mounted shutter release noticeably influence what an example sells for.","buying_guide":"Inspect the motorised film transport, the LCD data panel (which can fade or bleed), and the rubberised grip coating, which often degrades with age.

Questions
Is the Yashica Samurai Z a half-frame camera?
Yes — it exposes half-frame 35mm images, so a standard 36-exposure cassette yields around 72 frames.
