Konica pop
Pink |
The Konica Pop (aka C35 EFJ in Japan) is a 35mm compact camera by Konica, made from 1982. It has manual film advance by lever. It has CdS-controlled auto-exposure and a built-in flash. It was available in many bright colours along with the original black. After selling 1.5 million models, new versions were launched in 1985 (including a metallic silver example). These late editions did not say "Hexanon" on the lens, but the flash had an improved recharge time.
