It looks like your GS is working well, Adrian. Which film did you use for these?

You might consider trying to shoot a roll or two of that at half the box speed (set ASA for 100 instead of 200), I think that you would get good results, primarily more detail in the shadows, and a little less saturation in the colors. That might help with perceived sharpness as well.

I think the lens is sharp enough, but the film is underexposed, which is causing a loss of detail, and the color has shifted a little towards magenta, probably because the film is expired.

The Yashica lens is sharp. Assuming the camera is in good shape and alignment, should be able to get very sharp images.

So, you're either under or over exposing. Try one of the settings between 200 and 100 (160 or 125), Adrian. Also check the strength of your battery. How long has it been in the camera? It's been six months since you last used it, so it could be getting old.

I'm not sure what's with the white color burst from pic #1 and the second from the last. Is that a light seal problem?

That looks like a little lens flare to me. Did you use a lens hood?

Nope, no lens hood. That's odd since the lens flare tend to be red.

I've seen many light leaks lately from my Lubitel 166B. They are proportionate to the time spent in bright daylight between pictures for the camera, of course.

and I have a stock of inexpensive cans from DM that looks like this...
