AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Konica AiBORG in very good condition, delivered with a battery and original bag.
The Konica AiBORG super zoom 35-105 is a large, very conspicuous (if not outright eccentric) 35mm point-and-shoot viewfinder camera. It was made in Japan by Konica, who described it at its introduction in 1991 as 'futuristic, black, ellipsoid.' It is popularly known as the 'Darth Vader' camera, due to its resemblance to the helmet worn by the Star Wars character.
The heavy body is black, with rubberized handles at the ends and a subtle glitter effect on the front panels. An LCD panel on top displays the camera settings, and a small LCD screen on the back shows the date settings. The AiBORG features a 3x zoom lens — with a hinged transparent plastic cover, motor drive, and built-in flash.
At the back, there is a large joystick-like switch that moves vertically for zoom and horizontally for manual focus or moving the focus point. The focus distance is displayed on a small AC-shaped dial in the viewfinder. There are small colored buttons for the flash (red), self-timer (green, 3 or 10 seconds, or single/continuous shooting), and date setting, some of which are labeled in an obscure, non-standard manner. The small viewfinder lens has a rotatable diopter adjuster carefully positioned to sit on the cheekbone during use. Lens: Konica Zoom, 35-105mm. Power supply: 2CR5 6V battery.
