A pocket fixed-focus compact Konica built around a 28mm lens and a sliding cover.
The lens is a Konica 28mm f/6.7, three elements in three groups, fixed focus from about 0.9m to infinity. There is nothing to set. An electronically programmed shutter with three speeds between 1/60 and 1/180 doubles as the aperture, and film speed comes off the DX code across ISO 100 to 400.
Sliding the lens cover open powers it up. Loading, advance and rewind are motorized, and the flash fires by itself in low light on a five second recycle.
The viewfinder is a Galilean inverted type at 0.45x, which is small and dim. At 135g without the battery, that is the trade it makes.
