Ever the cynic....this smells of a PhotoShopped Maxxum? Lettering on the lens removed and camera labeling that looks at least slightly out of plane and pasted...
Wow this is really neat! We,ve all got to get one of these unless of course we need to save our money because we have our hearts set on the new Konica Digital...
Hey folks -- are we sure this isn't an April Fool's joke? That looks very much like a Nikon F100. And the Konica name isn't the familiar Konica logo, which I...
You are right. April Fool's day. But I do remember the internals of the FT-1 strongly resembled the internals of the old Nikon N2000.... On the other hand,...
Looks like Denis Graham and Alan Myers are onto something together this time. ... From: "Merritt, Robert" <merrittr1@...> Sent: 04/01/03 08:33 AM To:...
That did bring up one question, again I guess, why Konica discontinued their SLR in the first place? Apparently their SLR should have been popular enough so...
None taken! But everything is relative and if I think that I've gotten good results with a Hex 80-200 UC or someone else has gotten good results with a 70-210...
I understand your point and I'm not offended. I am wanting a zoom because my Konica is the only camera I have. I also have four young children and if I...
actually, my biggest clue that this was a fake was the ULR. home.att.net is the address for personal home pages from ATT internet users. I'm sure Konica has...

Amy: With four young children I'd go with a point and shoot with a zoom lens. When our kids were young I put the "good" camera aside, bit the bullet and bought...
I read this all blurry-eyed, waiting my turn in the shower this AM. I wasn't thinking of the date, I'm afraid. Kind of got the heart started, though! ... ...
... Very funny! I like the Konica T5, I mean Nikon F100. I dont't think Konica has called themselves Konishiroku for quite some time either. I do like the...

Well, it had me going right up until I saw the "news release" and thought the camera looked just like the F100. Actually, at first I thought that Konica was...
First POT of coffee, Gene. I must say when I saw Denis' post late last nite (early this morning! PST). I immediately zipped over to the Konica website looking...

Hey, Alan: If I'd been smart I'd have waited to post the URL until about now. And, for any of you that didn't discover it, if you click on the "T5" you see...
Yes, without the URL it would've been whipped into a frenzy! But it's just as well -- I probably would have shared the "news" with other lists and looked like...

Hi all, A bit off topic, but I'm betting others on this list have been in this position. Hopefully someone has been down this road and can give me some advice....
Philip, I agree with your statements, totally. As a rejoinder to your last sentence: Yes, in cases where the camera is the only one for the job whatever it may...
