Hi, as a recovering Konicaholic, I have 5 TC's an Autoreflex T3 (my favorite, full sized and real heft) 2 FS-1 and an FT-1.. Hmm methinks.. I also have 11 Konica lenses.. I had so many 40mm's that I used these instructions to adapt:

Hope these help?

Doug, thanks for the link! That is the nicest conversion I've seen of about
four now.

@Carsten, thanks!

I'm a konica user too
The solid and smooth t3 did that I fall in love with it.
It up the mirror so gently.

Only so-so, in some copies the metal curtain open when you armed the shutter. In some models with metal curtain I saw this (Rolleiflex, pentacon, konica, pentax, yashica).

Because the lens is so good.....(Konica s3) Remember? Well I'm fifty....

The T4 arrived today, looks in great shape, a little dusty, so am taking it to
my shop in town for cleaning and check the lightseals. The lens is the AR
50/1.4 earlier version to f16, not the 50/1.7, but still supposed to be a
razor sharp lens and faster, too.

50/1,4 not MC is really a very good lens. I have it.

Not much contrastier, but you will enjoy this one too.

All the hexanons lenses (not the hexa) al OK. Congratulations!!!!!

All will be OK. TC? Remind control the shutter much times and quickly.

Do you scan yourself the negatives or at the laboratory?

Estudleon, I do my own scanning, and will be attempting developing B&W
film this summer. I got the T3 for $52.54 shipping included that is on its
way as well. Three Konicas, now, and lenses: 50/1.4, 50/1.7, and 40/1.8,
plus the UC 80-200 zoom lens.
