Just one thing: IIRC the Yashica D has a Yashikor lens (check this out-
not a Yashinon). The Yashikor is a triplet and the Yashinon is a Tessar
design which is far better. So now, unless you stop down f5.6 or smaller
you MIGHT have some unacceptable falloff around the edges. I owned several
TLRs so this seems to ring a bell. What it boils down to is that IF this
is the case then you might as well use the Pentax since the results will
likely be better over the negative area and you will be able to use the
whole negative instead of cropping. Maybe you should use both.
