Konica FC 1

Picked up this very nice Konica for $40,9.5 condition.


















Probably use this for sole use by 400mm f4.5.We are enjoying major snow storm so no pics, for awhile.

The 50mm is a good lens as well...don't forget to post some film shots

Very good looking camera. Congrats!

Here's the thing, though:

No FC-1, regardless condition, is any better than its battery stick.

You can have a pristine looking camera body, but if the battery stick is missing, or if the contacts are not bright and shiny, you're in for a difficult experience.

This is because without a functional battery stick, the FC-1 is a paperweight.

And to buy a new battery stick you often have to purchase an entire camera body!

One of the best choice from Konica SLR line, congrats!!
