That $20 thrift store Yashica-Mat I bought actually shoots better than my $600 digital setup

I picked up a beat up Yashica-Mat EM at a St. Vinnies in Salem for $20. Everyone online says those are the cheap plastic version nobody should bother with. But the first roll I shot with Portra 400 came back with this dreamy soft focus that I've never gotten from my Fuji X-T30 even with vintage lenses. Has anyone else had good luck with the 'bad' version of a classic camera?

Totally feel that, the ugly duckling stuff often works way better than it has any right to.
