But for the record, note that whoever drew this, got the diode backwards.Īlf, I followed monopix' advice, and you both are right - the gs is another beast. the diagram Aford posted is also available at where it is much larger. In case anyone is wondering.Īs I said, this diagram is in the manual to which I've already posted a link.īut if this is the GS diagram, I don't think it helps as the GX obviously has some different functions.Īnd. Well, I just confirmed that the maximum image size allowable is 450x450. Send me a Private Message with your e-mail address and I will send you a readable circuit. Sorry the circuit is so small but the larger ones got rejected. Still better to use a real picture-posting site, which generally allow sizes up to 1024 x 768. By comparison, this picture is 450 x 450, so we know that it's at least possible to post it at a larger size. Regarding this picture size issue: it seems that this picture (the circuit diagram) could have been posted at a larger size. Post the picture on a proper site (Flickr, Picassa, etc.), rather than screwing around with this forum software's ridiculous arbitrary size limitations.

As you see, I'm completely new to the site, so don't know either how to post pics. Tks Aford, but sorry to say that David is right - its a bit too small to be read properly. I'm not that familiar with the GX so can't help beyond that. Not sure what the purpose of the Bulb Switch is though. If you look at the circuit, C1 is the timing capacitor which is charged either through the CDS cell and parallel resistor, or through the fixed resistor R3.

You can download the Electro 35 manual from. (Actually, looking closely, it looks like it says GS at the top not GX). The circuit does show the switch which allows manual selection of Flash or Bulb though. However, comparing the circuit in Aford's post to the one in the Electro 35 manual, I can't see any difference and I can't see anything that will automatically switch the shutter speed to 1/30th. This site limits the size of pictures you can post. (However, since I really have no idea how to post pictures to this site, afraid I can't be of more help here.) Post it on Flickr or some other photo-sharing site? Yashi GSN etc have this switch to manually set 1/30, originally meant for flash bulbs but GX has not. Second, how is the "speed limiter" working which prevents the GX to use speeds longer than 1/30 sec when a flash is attached and switched on? I figured out so far that this limiter needs a flash trigger voltage of at least 5 volts to block the longer speeds.Ĭase is, I'm doing quite a lot of b/w low light work where it often would be nice to have a fixed 1/30 sec to prevent blur. Has any of you ever seen a circuit/wiring diagram of the Yashica Electro GX? I'm looking for two very special things.
