Re: Yashica FX2 - Lenses

[Cees de Groot <cg@pobox.com>]

Hi Tibor,

All the lenses will appear in the Yashica lens FAQ (which I hope to build up 
with input of this group). I know 28, 35, 50, 135, 200 (and a 500/8 mirror, 
not quite sure) are being/have been made by Yashica. Apart from this (and 
that's the great fun about Yashica) you can save a bit of money and buy Contax 
Zeiss T* lenses, which puts you into upper class. The 50mm Zeiss is actually 
not that expensive (in fact, it's the only affordable one :-)), I'm currently 
saving for it. Apart from that, all the aftermarket lens makers (Tokina, 
Tamron, Vivitar and if you're desparate, Sigma) make manual focus lenses for 
the Yashica/Contax mount.

Regards

Cees
