Konica Autoreflex TC No. 4

Konica Autoreflex TC No. 4

I picked this Konica up off a popular online auction site in a lot of 9 different slr camera bodies. There were two Autoreflex TCs in the lot, but this is the first one I used. I got it for sentimental reasons because I shot with one just like it back in high school when I was on the yearbook staff. For some reason, now I have five of these cameras!

When I got home about midnight last night, there was a big package in my mailbox. Inside it was the lot of 9 slr camera bodies I got off eBay the other day. I ended up paying under $5 for each of the nine bodies. This was one of them, a Konica Autoreflex TC that was in less than stellar condition. The prism housing was cracked and there was a piece missing out of the plastic base, plus it needs a good cleaning. But, other than that, it still works and I've already used it.

This was one of my late Mother’s Southwestern-themed sculptures and it represented a small village with adobe buildings. It has a light in it which lights it up from below and inside the structures. I took this shot with the overhead lights out and only the single light of the sculpture lit up. The piece is approximately 12 inches wide.
