Show us your Konica.

[Keith]

There seems to be a 'show us your' thread for every other popular camera on RFF so why not the illustrious Konica ... ?

Not just RF's either ... I reckon we could show the AF and maybe the odd SLR and whatever else is ... Konica! 🙂

Funny looking thing.

No 28?🙂.....

28's a funny length ... I have a CV Ultron and have only used it a couple of times so I'm certainly not about to get any gas over a Hexanon!

What's so funny looking about my Hexar Carl ... the lines are ... functional! 😛

Keith,
A Thumbs Up will work well on that fine looking Hexar!

 

[Krosya]

Keith,
Hex 28 is great! A very sexy lens! 😉
Same goes for Hex 90. I'll post mine when I get a chance.

If there was one that fitted the Hexar and my M8 I'd definitely consider it! 🙂

A local shop has got a new old stock Konica P&S. It looks about maybe ten to fifteen years old with styling similar to the original Canon SureShot of the mid seventies. There is a built-in hand grip on the side suggesting a large battery compartment.

I'll pop in later today and get the model number then look on eBay to see if it's got a cult following.

@keith - just ignore cmogi10...he's just jealous that no amount of money can buy a leica with the hexar's features ; )

is lusting after a camera wrong? if so...i don't wanna be right.

That's right I forgot you are persuing a Hexar ... have you had any luck yet?

As for Carl ... he's young and being wrong is part of that particular condition! 😀

Keith, great looking camera because it's just like mine. Don't ever ask me which camera I'd reach out to save on a sinking ship, my Hexar or my M6 ttl; I'd probably drown unable to make up my mind. And Keith, no Hex 28??????. If you're ever in boring old Adelaide, pop up to Happy Valley and I'll convert you in a thrice. By the way there's a 35 m Hex for sale on Oz ebay at the minute, I'll be interested to see what it goes for.

Disposables (?) with 17mm lens

@keith - no luck yet... : (

i think everyone has realised what a cool rf it is...

 

[infrequent]

is 800 euros for the kit a fair price?

C35 zone focus. Sharp and contrasty lens.

It is now with another RFF member but this was one of mine.

How about one eccentric, BIG, RF made by Konica.

Looks like mine too! Except, I'd have the 28 and the 90 in the photo, as well as the 35 and the 50.

🙂

I have a AF, standard black issue, but NOBODY's AF looks like Roland's! Looks like Elvis before he met 'cilla, Roland!
