How did you do the film transfer to the Yashica?
I recently picked up a FA 43/1.9 to use with my MZ-L. Shot a roll of Tri-X with the combo and my sister was very kind to develop it for me. I can't really load film and develop nowadays cause of health reasons and she is a Photo major and works part time at the university photo lab.
Here's one from the roll,
Pentax MZ-L, FA 43/1.9, Tri-x in HC-110
Colton, nice shot and congrats on the 43 - that's truth be told my most used lens, both film and digital. Great piece!
I rewound the film leaving the leader out, then loaded it into the Yash (after finishing the roll that was in it), and advancing 3 frames with my hand over the lens to keep light from going in. That turned out just right - I can't even tell on the film where the switch over was. (In the past, I got to frame 3 on a Vitomatic, finished that one also in the Yash, but didn't do the blank advance thing: the result was a couple of double exposures, each from a different camera)
