I have three and am about to sell two. Actually one of the two for sale is a Yashica DSB 24/2.8 the other one is ML though - it\'s the one I shot with above. I wonder what the differences between the DSB and the ML are? Anyone know?


\"ML\" stands for \"multi layer\" and refers to lens coatings. These coatings were introduced later and are considerably better than the initial ones, i.e. single coated, marked as \"DSB\". Due to these differences ML lenses are commonly regarded as much better, especially in terms of contrast and flare resistance than DSB lenses.
You can find some interesting information on Yashica lenses in this FAQ:

Please refer also to this site of Louis Lam with many rewievs on Yashica lenses:
