How can I connect cable release to Yashica Mat?
What kind of cable release is compatible with this camera?

Isn't the shutter release button threaded for standard cable release? Seem to recall that the last Mat I repaired was so fitted,however it was one of the later models.

I think you will find that the Nikon cable release for a Nikkormat will do the trick.

The early Mats require an adapter - like the Leica nipple. Glenn is correct in that newer Mats have a standard cable release type threaded button.

I bought an adapter of this type on eBay. It fit both the Yashica A and Walzflex cameras.
