7:28 the company that released the Y35 had no connection with the Yashica company of old, Yashica was acquired by Kyocera in the 1980's well past their 1950's and 60's glory days with classics like their many TLR medium format cameras, the various Electro 35 models and their FFT, FR and FX SLR cameras. Kyocera then manufactured a multitude of cameras models under their own name, Yashica's name, and the Contax brand (which they also acquired) Contax was their premium brand using Carl Zeiss designed lenses (made both by Carl Zeiss and Cosina/Voigtländer with most of the body and parts made by Cosina), after Kyocera left the camera business in the mid 2000's the Yashica name was sold of along with other camera IP to various entities, with the Yashica trademark going to a Singaporean based IP company who then licensed the name to a Hong Kong company set up specifically for kickstarter campaigns such as this Y35 camera. as such the connection to the original Yashica company and products is thrice removed
I worked in a camera store in high school and college. Our manager ordered a Bessler camera (same company that made great enlargers). It was AWFUL. Heavy, clunky, loud, few lenses, bad control placement, the film advance felt like it was grinding sand, it looked like it was a junior high school shop project, .... THE WORST ever. We could not sell it. That's not quite right. We could not sell it to anyone who would not return it. She finally told us to sell it for anything we could get for it, no returns allowed. That did not work. We put it out on our yearly "sidewalk sale" and somebody finally took it away for almost free. Did I mention it was bad? Like really bad? That was 50 years ago and it still haunts my dreams.
Light also worked with Nokia to make the camera technology for the Nokia 9 Pureview phone. Like the L16, its software is a big buggy, and when the battery gets below 50% the camera app constantly crashes. It uses 5 lenses and stitches the 5 pictures together into one. It also shoots RAW. I have one, it can take fantastic phones but it’s very hit and miss.
Polaroid also went after Fuji for their instant film back in the eighties; the US courts sided with Polaroid, natch, but in the rest of the world - especially Australia - Fuji was allowed to stick around, and became quite popular. Their passport cameras - which had four lenses projecting on to a single photo sheet - were a common sight in every Australia Post post office, and pro photogs shoot Hasselblads used Fuji instant backs to check their exposures, since their instant filmed (broadly) lined up with their pro films.
Good round-up. However, Konica first merged with Minolta as the digital era ramped up; Sony later bought the combined company. Konica made some terrific high-end P/S film cameras (Revio, Hexar, etc) but reliability was a weakness. As for other camera fails: Kodak's EasyShare One, their first digital camera with a flip-out screen, huge built-in storage, and wireless image transfer, came to market about a year after its announcement and failed. They also made a hybrid APS film camera with digital capture (mainly for on-screen review), and it reached the market, but its second iteration never arrived. Thanks.
I originally had the Konica Minolta partnership in the script but opted to cut it out just keep the video going! I'll definitely look into those round ups tho!
The Yashica Y35 was basically a scam: being a cheap-o plastic P&S with teeny-tiny sensor and a slug of metal inside to make it feel like it had "weighty quality". Of course, the real company Yashica was long dead (1985 or 2005, depending on what you considered "dead") by the time the Kickstarter campaign happened (2017).
I remember being hyped about that Light camera, and I'm happy I didn't try to get one. I would have thought another company would have tried to do it right in the past 10 years but I guess it's quite a risky endeavour.
@@lsdc1 iphone and ipad didn't cost $6k and for completely different tasks you can find tons of people using cameras like Nikon d700 which is still amazing, or even older I don't want to spend that much money for 100% breakable camera in the very near future, moreover I have film cameras like Nikon F4s and Nikon f-301 that more than 30 years old and still works perfectly fine moreover this kind of "disposable tech" attitude from companies creates a lot more of e-waste, polluting environment
The Zeiss ZX1 felt like an R&D project being put out out to test the water tbh. It had a great lens tho. I feel like they should create a more normal camera without the editing apps gimmicks. There is a market of people who are into the premium fixed lens camera. But just not for 6500 usd. Also a honorable mention: Sigma's Foveon sensor adventures. I hope that they bring a modern version of that sensor in a mirrorless body.
I picked up a Light L16 and the camera is actually pretty good. It's a better camera than most realize, this is like due to the reputation it got upon release.
APS cameras, remember? Mid 90s I work in advertising and there was a tender to launch APS (not to be confused with APS-C) APS, developed by Canon, Fuji, Kodak, Konica, Minolta and Nikon, used a new film No sprockets so the camera was smaller Anyone who's played with cameras knew it'd fail Professionals won't buy APS SLR because each camera brand had a new lens mount And even though amateurs queued overnight for the compacts, the image quality sucked (The camera guys said a built-in clock factored in when a shot was taken But lighting conditions at 3pm in summer is v different from 3pm in winter) But of course management took the words of camera makers over a gear head Think in less than 2 years, APS was disconned And while old 35mm SLR lenses still have resale value, APS lenses can hardly move
APS was just a film format too small. Sure there has been smaller like 110 but even that is more for spy cameras and super small snapshotters then anything serious. The good thing about APS though was that it forces better chemical emulsions, which all found their way back up to 35mm and higher again.
One small fail as a mention. Nikon D600, it did sell well and is still regarded as a good camera, but when released it had a major issue with oil on the shutter that could end up on the sensor.
This and similar problems were in many Nikon cameras, but the company went to the meeting and all problems were corrected in service centers. Now shutter parts on the sensor are a regular problem with Sony cameras
@@azimow2905 my a7 mark one still works. The rotary button is the only thing broke . Mostly from me . Plenty of people have working a7 mark 3.

Melted flux, t30 broken bayonet, v100 shutter just stops , lunix pieces fel off the vf, who should I sack top for now? You buying me a Mark 4?
The Sony QX1/10/100, (& the Olympus Air) where users have to supply both the lenses and the screen & controls. Basically a sensor sold at the same price as a camera.
Holy shit I had forgotten about the Hasselblad Stellar. We had them in store in John Lewis Oxford Street, London. Pretty little things, but holy shit were they an infuriating concept.
I remember the Lytro! Too much marketing nonsense and not enough technical explanation. Plus the weird unconventional camera shape. The ZX1 was such a miss. They should not have ditched the Play Store. There have been others who have tried putting a decent camera on an Android device, BTW, but they always sacrifice something major, like hardware speed. LTT reviewed one from China. It was slow and buggy. A good idea with sub-par execution.

Th worst I personally used was a Kodak disk film camera. A point and shoot from the 80s. It auto advanced the film (a disk) when you clicked the shutter. It was all automatic but it mean't that the photo was a fraction of a second delayed. Forgot taking candid photo of a cat with it. The cat would her the mechanism advancing and be able to turn its head before photo was snapped. Many a good photo got lost with a distorted cat face as it rapidly looked at the camera.
I do like these weird cameras, and sometimes buy them. For instance the Sigma's DP's or Lytro's but only if it is REALLY REALLY CHEAP. At that point they are toys.

Loool the Pentax new line definitely will hit the next video. The NX mini wasn't tooo bad!IMO I think Samsung was pretty awesome. The NX1 was WAY ahead of the time.

Nice video. I have a vintage Yashica Electro 35 AND a Kodak EK160 Instant film camera. I collect old cameras. The issue with Kodak, and the reason they failed, was they infringed the Polaroid patent.
Well not necessarily! At peak Kodak was worth 30billion! The patent infringement was definitely a big blow but for them was really just chump change. Polaroid was actually sueing for 5 billion and the settlement was 919Million. Kodak's biggest problem was that they never transition to digital. They made most of their money from selling film and chemicals. Digital is a one time purchase. So the Life time value of a customer dramatically dropped when digital entered the market
Some is trying to put a target on my back 😂 (everyone knows you can't bad mouth Fuji)

It's kinda funny that the EOS Rp didn't make the cut, it should have. That camera is just terrible for what it's worth at launch, coming from Canon no less. At least the EOS R8 is a downsized R6 Mark II and released at the right time as more RF glasses are available now. The Rp is just straight up bad, it doesn't push anything forward, it's actually inferior to the DSLR it set out to replace - 6D Mark II and also inferior to the A7 Mark II - a 2014 camera, the EOS R gets a pass for being first, but the EOS Rp was just staight up a scam/noob-trap at the $1.399 price tag at launch. That's not to mention the RF mount wasn't matured at the time, the "budget" Rp was literally stuck with $1,299 L lens because there wasn't even 5 native RF lenses at the time, how did that even happen is beyond me? So anyone actually bought into Canon's "friendliest way to go full-frame" literally got scammed hard and they even doubled-down on that because well they are Canon shooters and just spent $1,399, stupidly, gotta justify it somehow. Canon didn't even promise anything with the Rp, customers didn't even expect a revolutionary step and they still under-delivered. It's actually incredible they managed to effed it up and effed with their customers this badly.
I originally had an honourable mentions, that fell into bad bad marketing position or underwhelming categories but made the video way too long 🤣 you should check out the sigma dp1! Was 10k MSRP For not a whole lot!
But wasn't it just a cheaper version of the R ? So how could it be better ? And with the RF-EF adapter (was it available at that time?) you could use any existing EF lens.
The EOS RP was just an instant-gratification camera to satisfy the folks who wanted something that could shoot video better than Canon DSLRs that didn't completely suck for stills. That's all. A transition piece to keep video guys happy while Canon worked on what came over the next five years. And for what it cost at launch, it did it very well. I almost picked one up as a vlogging/walkabout camera but went Panasonic MFT in the end for video.
400 GB per freaking SECOND?!? Holy cow, how did they imagine this works? Just take your pocket sized sever farm with you on shoots?
That had an insane portable DAS/NAS server connected to the unit!!
They were secretly a spinoff of a large-volume storage company. :-)
And the camera itself couldn't exactly be used on a shoulder rig.
Given the size of the camera, it is not like you would be taking it anywhere other than a dedicated studio.
Who the hell convinced them to do that? Western Digital? Seagate?

Will we be adding the Pixii camera to your list? We'll see.....
I hope not. The Pixii concept (affordable-ish upgradable rangefinder) is too good for the photography industry.
Nice video. I have a vintage Yashica Electro 35 AND a Kodak EK160 Instant film camera. I collect old cameras. The issue with Kodak, and the reason they failed, was they infringed the Polaroid patent.
Well not necessarily! At peak Kodak was worth 30billion!
The patent infringement was definitely a big blow but for them was really just chump change. Polaroid was actually sueing for 5 billion and the settlement was 919Million.
Kodak's biggest problem was that they never transition to digital. They made most of their money from selling film and chemicals. Digital is a one time purchase. So the Life time value of a customer dramatically dropped when digital entered the market
good video, extremely good quality editing for such a small subscriber count
I have one of the Lytro light field cameras, the software is the key :/

Canon R7. 😢😢😢😢
The Sony α line is descendant from the Minolta Maxxum series; Konica had nothing to do with it other than the merger.
X pro1 x ever
Some is trying to put a target on my back 😂 (everyone knows you can't bad mouth Fuji)
It's kinda funny that the EOS Rp didn't make the cut, it should have. That camera is just terrible for what it's worth at launch, coming from Canon no less. At least the EOS R8 is a downsized R6 Mark II and released at the right time as more RF glasses are available now.
The Rp is just straight up bad, it doesn't push anything forward, it's actually inferior to the DSLR it set out to replace - 6D Mark II and also inferior to the A7 Mark II - a 2014 camera, the EOS R gets a pass for being first, but the EOS Rp was just staight up a scam/noob-trap at the $1.399 price tag at launch. That's not to mention the RF mount wasn't matured at the time, the "budget" Rp was literally stuck with $1,299 L lens because there wasn't even 5 native RF lenses at the time, how did that even happen is beyond me?
So anyone actually bought into Canon's "friendliest way to go full-frame" literally got scammed hard and they even doubled-down on that because well they are Canon shooters and just spent $1,399, stupidly, gotta justify it somehow. Canon didn't even promise anything with the Rp, customers didn't even expect a revolutionary step and they still under-delivered. It's actually incredible they managed to effed it up and effed with their customers this badly.
I originally had an honourable mentions, that fell into bad bad marketing position or underwhelming categories but made the video way too long 🤣 you should check out the sigma dp1! Was 10k MSRP For not a whole lot!
But wasn't it just a cheaper version of the R ? So how could it be better ? And with the RF-EF adapter (was it available at that time?) you could use any existing EF lens.
The EOS RP was just an instant-gratification camera to satisfy the folks who wanted something that could shoot video better than Canon DSLRs that didn't completely suck for stills. That's all. A transition piece to keep video guys happy while Canon worked on what came over the next five years. And for what it cost at launch, it did it very well. I almost picked one up as a vlogging/walkabout camera but went Panasonic MFT in the end for video.
I loved the video. But PLEASE don't use AI for your thumbnail.
"this guy for sure has like 100k subs"

One day we'll make it!
