China Giant TLR instant camera YC75X100

The YC75X100 is the world's first TLR instant camera, a product in the early 1980s.

According to a camera collector in Shanghai, this may be the only original camera in mainland China, I believe friends who have played mainland cameras know, basically every mainland machine, can also find its foreign ancestors, and his original definition is conceptually native. 

In the 1980s, in the early days of reform and opening up, the selling price was RMB 4,000. In those days, the "ten thousand yuan household" could be on the front page of the newspaper, the selling price of this machine was half a "ten thousand yuan household"!

It is using large rolls of instant photo paper (a roll of paper, about 40-50 photos), the interesting part is that the original convenient form of pack film, simplified to complex, the photo paper, negative, potion, all split, is a set of independently developed system.

It is estimated that there are between 50 -100 units in existence.

YC75X100 是世上第一部 TLR 即影即有相機，80年代初期產品，YC 的意思即是 yī cì 「一次」的普通話併音，而75x100 ，就是照片的大小 75 x100mm ( 近似 Type 100 pack film )

據一位在上海的相機收藏家指出，這一台有可能是大陸唯一的一台原創相機，相信有玩過大陸相機的朋友也知，基本上每一款大陸機，也能找到它的外國祖先。而他的原創定義是從概念上是原生的機款。

在 80 年代，改革開放初期，售價是 RMB 4000，在當年， 「萬元戶」是可以上報紙頭版的，這台機的售價就是半個「萬元戶」 ！

它是使用大型卷裝即影即有相紙的 ( 一卷紙，約有 40-50 張照片 )，有趣的地方是，把 pack film 原有方便使用的形式，化簡為繁，將相紙，底片，藥水，全數分拆，是一套獨立開發的系統。

估計存世的約在 50 -100 台之間。
