I’m sorry

Because we can’t speak english

I am using DeepL translate, so it may be a strange sentence,

but I would like you to understand

Thank you!





Today we have a film loading reminder design for KONICA’s lens shutter rangefinder camera released in 1961.


KONICA SⅡ (Reference product)

 


The film loading reminder is located on the upper surface of the film winding lever’s rotary axis.




Three types of color displays appear in a square window on the left side of the central axis.
The type can be selected by turning the knurling on the outside of the rotation axis.


The black color indication is when black-and-white film is used.




Blue color is when color negative film is used.




Red color is when color positive film is used.




This time we introduced a film loading reminder for KONICA’s lens shutter rangefinder camera released in 1961.


This is a film loading reminder that allows you to know at a glance the type of film you are using.


It is a very convenient display function that is indispensable for film cameras!







Please look forward to the next issue, where we will continue our close-up look at various standard features that symbolize the times in film cameras!


Thank you for reading my column today.
