Période

mid 1960s+

Canada

One of five cameras acquired form Mr. André Cloutier of Ottawa. Mr. Cloutier is a collector & amateur photographer; his images have appeared in ``Popular Photography``. He was a soldier with the Canadian Armed Forces & NATO & used his equipment in Canada & Europe. Mr. Cloutier supplemented his income by working part time in photographic departments of various stores such as Hougen's in Whitehorse, Yukon; Pascal & Sears in Ottawa. He often acquired cameras & accessories in these stores using his employee discount. Mr.Cloutier purchased this camera in Whitehorse, Yukon circa 1965 at Hougen's (see Ref. 3). He was stationed in Whitehorse from between 1965-1968 & also worked part time at the store, selling cameras & processing films. The Konica was his first fully automatic camera; it was his favourite camera & he used it extensively for many years. The camera was also used by his wife who was less familiar with the art of taking pictures, hence the bright orange stickers with instructions on the camera

Fonction

A device used to record still images on light sensitive film in a two-dimensional format.

Technique

An example of the type of camera used by an advanced amateur photographer of the 1960s. The camera is furnished with a multiple exposure prevention & full automatic exposure control by electric eye & programmed shutter. The shutter will not operate when the subject is too dark for proper exposure &, & a warning signal will appear in the viewfinder grid. From McKeown's price guide to cameras: Konica EE-Matic Deluxe F, 1967; coupled rangefinder 35mm camera with automatic exposure; CdS meter; built-in hinged reflector on top with sockets for both flashcubes and AG-1 bulbs; Hexanon f2.8/42mm lens; Citizen Auto shutter controlled by CDS meter in lens barrel. Konica Corp. or Konishiroku Kaguku and its predecessors have been involved in the photographic business since 1873 when Konishi-ya sold photographic materials (Ref. 2)..
