Sue, I was just looking at that myself. Does it make sense that you take a Konica lens .... adapt a Nikon F mount on it ..... then get a Nikon to Konica...
Here's another idea.... The Osram series that encompass the 25-44 range (denotes the DIN GN's) have a clever head design that leaves a small, central "wink"...
It is a healthful thing for a newsgroup to digress a bit...especially in the Chanukah (hope i spelled it Correctly, Christmas, Kwanzaa, New Years, Greek...
Hello I am usually carrying around a FS-1 and a T3N. In somae situations i need a winder to shoot sequences. For example when shooting photos for my brother...
Hi Manuel, Some information about shooting speeds for Konica SLR's FT-1 ... 2-frames per second when set in continues mode. FS-1 ... 1.5-frames per second. ...
Manuel, The FT-1 shoots at 2.5 fps, faster than both the Autowinder AR & Autowinder F (I can usually speed wind at a faster rate than both of them) & I am...
Actually saw this lens (have to assume it's the same one) advertised in Shutterbug a few years ago. I believe it was Wall Street camera. Sounded crazy, so I...
It appears to be the genuine article but it is painful indeed that it was mutilated with a custom Nikon mount. I wonder if a qualified technician like Greg...
Fred, You know ..... it could be the same one. Wall Street Camera had an 800mm Hexanon listed as "sold" on thier web page. And now that Wall Street is no...
I recall now that I spotted the "Hexanon" lens in the Nikon section while scanning the page. Must have been near the Konica area, as I don't check out the...
Roger, and others: If you have the bandwidth (or the patience) you can download the printable FT-1 Manual in ONE piece (about 8.5 Megs) by following these...
... Great! Got it! Thanks!! Now, if I can get so lucky on the service and factory manuals... :o) Roger Roger Phillips mailto:antiqueflyer@... "There's a...
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE... Roger, I got those on a CD I will try to put them in the groups file section. I will let you know when I do that.. Pretty soon...
I just wanted to say thanks for all the responses to my question. I got a lot of information out of that file and out of your answers. I do have to say, I...
I'm shopping around for color print and B&W film, and for Kodak film I see three different "price points" for what's billed as the "same" film. For example,...
Hello, I'm shopping for a basic tripod to use with my Konica T-3. I would like a light one (so that I'm not weighed down *too* much if I have to lug it...
Hi Art, Many of us have come to the conclusion that just one tripod is not enough...we have`nt found that Holy Grail of tripods,able to handle 800mm lenses,...
My all time favorite tripod is the original Marchionne Tilt-All, polished aluminum tripod. You'll never need another one. Go to a local antique and classic...
Art, Thanks for asking those two questions. I look forward to reading the answers. Robert, I love unobtanium even without the helium. The c-clamp and ball head...
Hi Art, There are lots of tripods out there, at all different price points! Here's what I'd suggest you consider: Price is a pretty good indicator of whether...
I agree, the Tilt-All is a good tripod. Be careful though, there are lots of "knock-offs" and copies around. I had one that looked an awful lot like the real...
Hello Everyone; I have an old Konica 35mm f/2.8 lens. It is in nearly perfect, as is the case. Along with it I have two closeup attachments. Everything is...
Happy 2003 from a new Konica user, sufferer and
collector...

My new old tripod i got from my grandpa together with a minolta bag is the best one I've ever seen. It's a Velbon J and i guess it's 20 years old. Build of alu...
Hi Mike, Konica did make a 35mm f2.8 lens in the early mount, but also in the later. The earlier F/FS Konica mount lenses have a little tab that sticks out at...
Hi, Art, Well, film choice is such an issue of opinion that I'm not sure I should start this, but here goes. All this is just my experience - and opinion. 1....
