One was a mat that i just wanted cla d.
They are conveniently divided into knob advance models and the crank advance models discussed here.
The first yashica tlr with crank advance was the yashica mat released in 1957 the earliest models are equipped with a 75 mm 3 5 lumaxar taking lens and a 75 mm 3 2 lumaxar viewing lens succeeded by 80 mm lenses with the same specifications.
