Konica C35EF3 (Blue)

[farlymac]

Finally got around to fixing the C35EF3 that was another two dollar rescue from Goodwill. It had a couple of internal parts that needed glueing back together. Some test shots on expired (12/2009) Fuji Superia 200, with rework done in PSE8.

"The lens alone is worth the price"

Pity it misses hand strap, it's useful and....I just like those grippy straps.

That's a lovely little thing. Pics look great too. Cool. 🙂

It came with a strap, BTGC. I just took it off while I had the camera torn down, and taking the photos of it, but haven't put it back on yet. Then, sometimes it just gets in the way, so I might just tag it, and chuck it in the collection drawer.

Thanks. I was tempted to get a red one, but let it pass.

I have a red one and I love the way the metal spool swings down when you open the back to load film!

I've got the black version, one of my favorites. Funny how people will pay more for the Konica Pop with the f/4 lens instead of this one.

and then the white EF3 for my gf

Btw POP with it's 36/4 isn't anything stellar but I've seen some which are worse.

Thanks, everyone. As long as I can remember to focus the thing, I shouldn't waste too many shots. Matt, the Pop is trendy, so that will always drive up the price and interest in it. And with all the different colors, collectors drive up the value too. If I didn't live on a tight budget, I'd be tempted to get as many color variations as I could find, but then I've got too many p&s cameras now. Now I need to get my C35 Automatic in shape.
