Yashica FX-3 Super 2000 with homemade lens

Success! I think this will be my camera of choice at least for awhile. I love the results and using it is extremely entertaining. The zoom is about as far as I expected, the equivalent of an 80mm. I estimated the aperture at 4 but I think it's more 2.8, could've used 1 more stop in exposure. The overall effect is more soft focus but I think I had the lens turned a bit too much. I need to work with setting the lens to a zero point and working from there.
Overall I'm satisfied with this one, but motivated to build again and see what develops.
