History

The Yashica 8 is a typical home movie camera of the time. Feature wise it is basic, but it is well built with a die-cast aluminum body and good quality for its positioning. It uses standard 8, also known as double 8, cine film.
As well as the differences with the Yashica 8 (most obviously with shutter release, viewfinder and door latch) the new twin lens version features upgraded 13mm f/1.4 and 38mm f/1.4 lenses now called “Cine Yashinon” and according to a circa 1958 Japanese Yashica Brochure, which features both the earlier “Yashica 8” (as all the early boxes are named) and the later camera (referred to as a “luxury” version), it came with both lenses fitted and was called the “Yashica 8T-2”.
