Yashica's late-1980s consumer C/Y SLR — the 108, electronic shutter, program and manual exposure.

The Yashica 108 is a 35mm film SLR from the late 1980s, a later manual-focus body on the Contax/Yashica (C/Y) bayonet aimed at beginners and general users. Often sold as the 108 Multi Program, it took Yashica ML lenses and Carl Zeiss T* optics and represented Yashica's move toward more automated, plastic-bodied consumer SLRs while retaining the established C/Y mount.

The 108 is a C/Y bayonet SLR for 35mm film with an electronically controlled focal-plane shutter and through-the-lens metering. It offers programmed automatic and manual exposure, with the metering shown in the viewfinder. Because the shutter timing is electronic, the camera depends on a battery to fire. Any spec that cannot be reliably verified, such as an exact shutter range, is omitted here rather than guessed.

The 108 suits a beginner, student or traveller who wants program automation with access to the Zeiss and Yashica ML lens systems. Its program mode makes it easy to pick up and shoot, and the lightweight body is convenient to carry. The trade-offs are a more plastic-feeling consumer construction and full battery dependence compared with the earlier mechanical C/Y bodies.

On the used market the 108 is an inexpensive later C/Y body, so foam and electronics both need checking. Replace perished foam light seals and mirror-damper foam. Confirm the camera powers up and the electronically timed shutter fires with a fresh battery, and test program mode and the meter for correct response, since electronic faults are the main risk. Check the prism, and verify film advance, rewind and the bayonet lock operate smoothly.
