I made a really bad series with Pentax MX on this batch of slide so I did put into my test roll bag (first roll to discover new camera weaknesses)
I did expect a lot from this camera and I wasn't disappointed

Yeah, the Sensimilla 200 is OK, but Provia would be much better. That's
quite a large focusing lever on the camera, looks like the kickstart to a
motorcycle. |

Would love to see some Portraits with that lens at f4 to compare with my more modern hex s2. _________________ Moderator |

It's one of the cameras I really want to add to my stable, a pity few of them show up on ebay. The first pictures look a bit soft, maybe due to scanning? The later ones are great, and the view of the river from above is stunning, you should sell it to print tourist postcards. |

Don't know for sure , either scanning or miss focusing. Rare bird indeed if I see any I will let you know in pm. _________________ -------------------------------

They show up on US ebay sometimes. If you find one I can help with relay. Most are not working. A CLA is likely needed with these when you find one. _________________ Moderator |

If I remember at Spring I will do some for you, I expect better quality from yours, but with minimal difference. _________________ -------------------------------

Thanks to you both!
Attila, just one question: I suppose yours is the III model with framelines and a 1:1 viewfinder? If so, is it clear and can you shoot with both eyes open? I absolutely love 1:1 rangefinders but there's few of them (the Vitomatics and Nikon S2 that I know of, and without an rf the later Vito B). |

Ooops, I did not think of checking the pic of the camera at the top of this thread. Of course yours has the smaller viewfinder, it's the model without the third window. A nice article on these cameras here, so now everybody will start looking for one and they will get even rarer.
PS: there's something about Konica... I just bought a second TC as mine has a defective meter, so that I can use my AR lenses (and also because the new one comes with the sharpness monster, the 40mm 1.8 ). And I'm already thinking about the next Konica to get when I have some funds... |

I think this is not very important , same thing than Canonete QL17 and QL17 III or Bessa Color Heliar and Heliar. Price level is more than double benefits is not much. My Canonete without III is produce same superb pictures than version III. Nice to have 1:1 finder but if price is more than double and really hard to get it , no thanks I am happy with this one. _________________ -------------------------------
