I noticed there were two 105mmm/f4 macro lenses on ebay last week. One went for the grand sum of $86. I'm not sure what the other one went for. Just a couple...
To sell the stuff you are basically just giving it away. I have just about every lenses excluding the 21 2.8, 28 1.8 and 50 1.2 and the 400, 800 and 1000. I...
Yes, it's certainly a buyer's market and is likely to remain so aside from a few high ticket items.? Younger folks don't really know what Konica is right now.?...
Well, I have the 21/2.8, the 28/1.8, and the 50/1.2 (used to have three of them), and I'm not sure I could get a thousand bucks for the whole thing, either....
... For the lens sizes, this is nothing new, it's no different for someone who has always worked with a medium format 6x6, who moves to 35mm, although...
The flip side of this is that, for those of us acquiring lenses we couldn't afford in our misspent youth, assembling a representative Konica kit is inexpensive...
It's definately a buyers market, here in the UK from what I can work out, Konica were never that popular. My step dad was involved with their advertising over...
Some people use the Hexanons on Olympus digital SLRs, and I know that has been discussed on this forum in the past. That's probably as close as Konica users...
Why anyonone would want to stuff up a good lens just for the sake of using it on a digital camera, I don't know. I notice prices for dark room have fallen too,...
... Well Michael, as I said before many of the lenses, will outlast all of the Konica bodies, because they are not making the bodies anymore. For example take...
Hi, Thought people might be interested to know that Ivor Matanle has written a "buying & using a... Konica Autoreflex T" review in this weeks Amateur...
Hmm. The Olympus digital SLRs are appealing and I could use one for slide copying. Konica bellows and slide copying attachments, like all else Konica, aren't...
Uh oh! Here's goes the old film vs digital debate again. IMHO, this is the best time ever to be a photographer! There are so many cool new tools that work...
The Olympus crowd is pretty fond of converting the Hexanon 40/1.8 for use on the Olympus digital SLRs. That translates into the equivalent of an 80mm f/1.8...
Alan, I use my older manual focus lenses on a Nikon D70s....Especially my Lester A Dine 105mm F2.8 Macro "Wunderlens"...I can't meter with these lenses but...
I have a few manual focus Pentax "A" lenses, and they are great to use on the Pentax digital cameras. My favorite is the 8mm Sigma full circle fisheye. Of...
I was wondering about that but the "crop" factor for Oly is 2X making even a 28mm lens give the FOV of a 56mm...That is the big factor when trying to get wide...
Yes, it's a bad deal for the wide angle user--terrific for tele work--sort of how I used to feel about 1.5 and 1.6 crop factors. But I have gotten used to...
... i have enjoyed the classic camera books that mr mantale has written, and the photographs he has used to illustrate the results of these systems, but i am...
... I have taken a lot of pictures with Hexanon lenses on Olympus DSLR camera. It's a very viable solution for bringing my Konica lenses back to life. Here are...
I have Matanle's two books, very well done, informative but he is biased at times. Many Konica lenses are positively outstanding especially the 40 f1.8...
Lee, I am sorry I am coming in at the end of the movie here but how do you get Hexanon lenses on your Olympus DSLR? Rob _____ From: konicaslr@yahoogroups.com...
There is a way around the wide angle dilemma with digital. I have the Oly Evolt-500. I bought it knowing full well about the 2X crop factor. It has one of the...
Great information and photos!? If I ever decide to switch to Olympus from Pentax (I have looked at the new E3 and find it pretty interesting) I may rethink...
Mike, Still shooting Konicas with Kodachrome and Velvia. However, I do drive a car with airbags and traction control. I not a total Ludite. Yet. Dave...
