Do you know the names of the three distinct mechanical coupling elements on the C/Y mount? Yashica described these to dealers when the mount was launched along with the FX-1 camera. They are: 1) Aperture keying lever; 2) Aperture scale coupling pin; and 3) Automatic diaphragm action lever. Read more on page 4 of this PDF: www.pacificrimcamera.com/rl/02340/02340.pdfDale

I've never known what the 'official' names were, but I'd posted this before to point out their functionality...
