Yashica T5 (T4 Super D)
The Yashica T5, sold in some markets as the T4 Super D, is a 35mm compact film camera fitted with a fixed Carl Zeiss Tessar 35mm f/3.5 lens. It belongs to the premium point-and-shoot category that emerged in the 1990s, where the Zeiss optic and a top-mounted Super Scope waist-level finder set it apart from mainstream compacts of the period.
At recent UK auction the Yashica T5 has changed hands at hammer prices between roughly £210 and £360, with only two recorded results sitting either side of a £290 midpoint. Demand for premium 1990s compacts remains strong in 2026, so a clean, fully working T5 (T4 Super D) tends to sell for a price near the top of that range, while examples with cosmetic or functional issues are worth meaningfully less at saleroom level.
