Yashica MG-1 35mm Film Camera with Yashica CS-14 Flash

This Yashica MG-1 is a 35mm film camera featuring a clean silver metal top plate paired with a textured black body wrap, giving it a balanced, utilitarian feel. The fixed 45mm ƒ/2.8 Yashinon lens sits prominently at the center, surrounded by a metal focusing ring and integrated selenium light meter system that powers the camera’s exposure. A rectangular viewfinder window and simple top-mounted controls keep the layout straightforward, while the matching CS-14 flash unit complements the camera’s compact profile for low-light shooting. With its mechanical construction and stripped-back design, this setup reflects a practical approach to everyday photography from the era.
