recently i wanted to try the cool konica ar lenses i'd been collecting for my ep2 out on film, so i picked up a $10 konica tc-x. this is the last in the line of cams that utilize the ar mount lenses, i think it was made by cosina, and was the first all plastic 35mm camera ever made. it's actually a pretty machine, though it does feel a little 'cheap'. but it is also the lightest and most compact interchaneable lens slr ive ever used. the perfect 'street machine'. and the images look anything but cheap. the first 3 are taken with the konica 40/1.8 on fuji t64 chrome; the next 4 with the konica 57/1.4 on ektar 100 and the last 3 with the konica 85/1.8 on ektar 100. except for cropping and white balance on the fuji film, there is little to no post processing.
