The Konica A4 is a classic film camera that features a 35mm f/3.5 lens comprised of 4 elements in 4 groups. There are many topics in the forums showing just how good this little camera is.

This one is in good condition, I have run a film through it and everything works. There is a new battery in the camera.





Price. £25 plus postage.

I agree Attila, it's a great camera - but I don't need two of them. Make me an offer guys.

And it doesnt work. PITA. Thumbs from the first film, missing ones are completely unexposed, there are only 2 or 3 actually exposed properly. What a disappointment

Peter I took digital too so no problem.

Dave, well the train fare was only £17 each so 2x adults @£17 =£34 less 30% '2together railcard' is... erm. You work it out Wink

EDIT: Damn! It was a freebie. Still looks good in my collection though. No problem at all.

The only bugger is, normally I only get the film scanned to cd when trying out a 'new' camera, this time I ordered prints! Only the second time I did it, and both times a major fail!

The film runs through it OK ? - I know I tried an old exposed roll through it a few times and it seemed perfect in winding it on.

I've just found a boxful of film compacts that I'd forgot about, I'll see what other crap - classic film cameras I mean - is in there. Laughing

The film went through ok but I had the distinct impression when I was using it that the shutter wasnt firing every time. Borne out by the blank frames and unevenly exposed negs.

No problem though, I have a few nice AF autos, which never get used.

It would be interesting to know what you've got in your little box.
