Yashica TL Electro-X
The Yashica TL Electro-X is a game-changing SLR camera that was introduced in 1968 and ceased production in 1974. It was one of the first three SLRs with an electronically controlled shutter, and the only one that was successful, selling over 300,000 units.
The camera's advanced electronics were paired with state-of-the-art TTL metering, allowing for step-less timing of the shutter at any intermediate speed between 2 seconds and 1/1000th.
This was the first camera to feature viewfinder electronic lights for exposure information, using miniature lamps instead of LEDs.
