If you want a fixed lens rangefinder with a lens faster than f/1.7, you have but a few options.
One of those options is the Konica Auto S1.6, a slightly updated version of the company's successful Auto S2 model, with a faster 7-element f/1.6 lens, a flash hot shoe, and new shutter.
The Konica Auto S1.6 retains all that there is to like about the Auto S2, including a razor sharp lens, one of the best fixed lens rangefinder viewfinders, and a large and attractive body.
This could be the perfect rangefinder, but is it?
