Yashica is upgrading a 67 year old camera to digital but keeping its retro flash.
The original Yashica Y16 debuted in 1959 as a 16mm film camera but the company is reviving it as a 12-megapixel retro digital shooter with an added LCD display on the back. Pricing hasn’t been announced ahead of preorders opening in October, but the new Y16 will still feature a bright Xenon flash instead of using LEDs.
