Description

The Konica Pearl II is a classic Japanese folding medium-format rangefinder camera, admired for its compact folding design, elegant styling, and excellent portability for a camera that uses 120 roll film. Equipped with the Hexar 75mm f/3.5 lens, it produces 6×4.5cm photographs with the distinctive tonal character and detail associated with medium-format photography.

The Hexar 75mm f/3.5 is a versatile standard lens for the 6×4.5 format, making this camera suitable for portraits, street photography, landscapes, and everyday scenes. Its folding bellows design allows the camera to collapse into a compact form for storage and transport, making it an appealing choice for collectors and photographers interested in vintage folding cameras.
