In 1966 Yashica introduced the Electro 35, the first of a very successful line of 35mm rangefinder cameras with fixed Yashinon lenses. The rangefinder is coupled to the focusing ring and the viewfinder is parallax corrected. The Electros use aperture priority exposure with a stepless automatic shutter with speeds from 30 seconds to 1/500s.

Is there auto exposure lock on Yashica Electro 35?

The only gotchas are that the Electro 35 has no auto-exposure lock and it’s an almost all-auto camera. It only has three manual shutter speeds, and that’s stretching it. It is designed for a no-longer available mercury battery, however modern alkaline replacements work fine.
