My Konica Hexanon experiment!

Some of you might have read my topic about the Konica lenses and whether or not it is worth buying them. Question was asked because i was offered a (like new) Konica FS-1 with 3 lenses: 1.8/40, 3.5/28 and 3.5/135.

Since i still don't have an adapter to use them on the NEX, i decided to shoot some film with the set right away! And i love the results! It's a very nice camera, and the lenses are a joy to use! Looking forward to an adapter and using them on digital!

Used film: Kodak Gold Ultra 400. There are a few more examples in my flickr photostream! Thanks for looking! Wink

Hexanons are really great lenses, always worth having. The FS-1 is a good camera too, a bit ugly but produces great images.

Any of them what you find first, you will never find less than excellent Konica Hexanon.
