YASHICA Auto Focus Motor

The Yashica Auto Focus is a compact viewfinder camera with autofocus introduced by Yashica in 1978. The Auto features a 38mm f/2.8 lens mated to an electronically controlled shutter capable of speeds ranging from 1/8 to 1/500 seconds. On the top plate is an integrated flash unit which can be activated by pressing down where it says “PUSH” with a flash ready indicator light behind it. The Auto’s autofocus system is initiated by simply pressing the shutter button which prompts the the camera to adjust focus on whatever is in the centre of the frame before tripping the shutter. There a focus lock button located near the lens that can be used to hold focus on the subject even if you don’t want it dead centre. Surrounding the front element of the lens is a knurled plastic ring that is used to select the film speed and next to the lens is an icon-based focus distance indicator with a red self-timer light directly above it which can be activated by pulling the self timer lever on the other side.
