Default Konica Auto S2

I was wondering if anyone of you bros used this cam before?

Read a few reviews about it. Thinking of getting it. Any reviews before I hunt for one?

I have a mint one I acquired over 20 years ago and I must say that I have been pleasantly surprised at the results obtainable! Doesn't look that fancy but don't be deceived by that. They are usually sold cheaply so represent a real bargain if in sound working order. Try to find one that has the original black leather case. Easy enough to locate an owners manual for free off the internet.

I dont mean to be waxing lyrical about this cam just because I have one, but it's really a very good cam. I bit the bullet and bought one last year after checking out photo samples and owners' reviews on the Net. It's lens is very sharp and contrasty and the metering is spot-on!

sure it's not as sought after as a canon giii ql-17 or a minolta himatic 7sii or it's brother, the konica s3 but it's one heck of a bargain with fantastic results.

Is it the one with fixed Konica Hexanon lens.

Cause I have it also, but yet still need to go for test shoot.
