Well I have the next one up which is similar....FT-1. As this was one of Konicas top camera I find nothing impressive about it compared to Canon, Minolta etc, but it just does the job with accurate exposures.
I went out to test it in colour with a 40mm lens and I liked this picture so much, I went back with a range of lenses to see if I can get a better shot.........next I would like to use a Medium format camera for the same scene, there is a good picture here to be taken, in this area, all I have to do is find it.
Ft-1, 40mm, superia 200 asa

The 2nd shot is a strange, rare, monument, to people in the area who fought in the Boer war and in the shadow to the left is a monument to a general's horse....huh apparently the general was killed and the horse survived.

Anybody interested in getting a Konica camera......with the cheap common TC you can just use a 1.5v battery and it doesn't damaged the camera, all I have done is changed the asa e.g. from 100asa to 75 asa on my one.

The least we can do is post many great shots made on film...
But back on topic: I remember that Konica also made a SLR with a mechanism that allowed to switch the camera from 24 x 36 to half-frame and back, even mid-roll. Which model is that?
