I've had a few Yashicas over the years. I love the classic Electro 35, which this seems to borrow the "look" of pretty heavily, and all the ones were great except for when the rubber pads in the shutter button would rot and it would suddenly start firing at 1/500 on every shot. When it was working right, though, the lens was so sharp you could cut yourself on the images from it.
I've always meant to pick up a Lynx 14, which is a bit bigger and heavier, but all mechanical.
I've never owned one of their SLRs, but considering that they also made both bodies and lenses with the Contax brand name, and shared the mount with late Contax SLRs, I tend to have a high opinion of them.
The only one I haven't liked(and this is an unpopular opinion) was the 124 series, but then I'm a Rollei guy and tend to like Mamiyas when it comes to Japanese TLRs.
With all of that said, this has been floating around in various incarnations for what seems like 10 years, and I don't "get" it. I don't want to keep track of little things that look like an APS film cartridge, and have to open the back, every time I want to change the ISO. Having a thumb lever/crank on a digital camera has always seemed pointless to me-this doesn't appear to have anything that NEEDs to be cocked/reset by automation(DSLRs need to have their shutter cocked, and have a motor in them to do that), and even if it did you're still dependent on batteries for the camera to work anyway.
Maybe the fact that I don't "get it" means that I'm not the target audience.
If I wanted a "retro" looking camera that with knobs and dials for controls, I'd get a Fuji, which has the benefit of being part of a complete system with superb optics...
