Revue SR with Hexar 1,4/52mm (Konica FP), a 35mm SLR in Konica F mount, in very good physical condition and tested and working, estimated period 1950–1960.
Description from the seller
For sale is a nice sample of the Revue SR, a camera produced by Konica for Foto Quelle and presented in the 1960s. The model designation of the Japanese manufacturer is "Konica FP". In the USA, this model was also sold as the Wards SLR 700.
Foto-Quelle was a major German mail-order company that sold imported cameras under the Revue name.
The Konica FP is a vintage, fully mechanical 35mm film single-lens reflex (SLR) camera introduced by Konishiroku in Japan in 1963.
Key Features
Shutter: It features a metal vertical-travel Copal Square shutter. Shutter speeds range from 1 second to 1/1000 of a second, plus a bulb (B) mode for long exposures.
No Built-In Meter: The camera does not have an internal light meter to measure brightness. You can mount an optional clip-on accessory meter to the top dial if you need help finding exposure settings.
Lens Mount: It uses the early Konica F bayonet lens mount, which came before the later Konica AR mount. The included 52mm 1.4 lens is highly regarded by photographers.
Focusing Screen: It was the first Konica SLR to feature a central microprism spot on the matte glass screen to help you focus manually.
The camera is in very good, working condition. Was not tested with film. Please take a good look at the photos, they are an important part of the description.
I will pack and ship the package with great care.
