A simple awesome camera, sharp like hell , featuring built in coupled RF, frame counter (no red window), exposure prevention and SMALL!

Hi-res images are here












finally some badly development frames, (I forgot to blend 500ml developer for 120 I just mixed 300mm for 35mm even if I did mix an extra 200mm immediately it was too late frames are damaged.

These are good for demonstrate how sharp this lens on infinity shoots.

Great shots, Attila! I want one of those cameras bad, but they are not very common at all. That or a clean Super Ikonta A with Synchro Compur -- also rare.

Yes, right . I see only mine under 3 years on Ebay, Pearl I and II a bit more common. I saw couple of ones in last year and this year too. They are I think good as Pearl III. Konica I has uncoupled RF, Konica II has coupled RF with red window what can be safer on long term , due no mechanical difficulties.

I saw one IV only on Ebay under years it went above 1000 USD I couldn't afford it Sad

I think Pearl I,II are good as III and more common, I will try it out them again with B&W and we able to compare them.
