transiently permanent
Konica Auto S2, 1965
Pretty and solid fixed lens rangefinder from the mid 60's. The lens is a usefully fast F1.8.
I sold this one several years ago but currently own another...minus box and papers. They are nice cameras.
As a side issue, this shot was taken a few days after I moved out of my marital home, on the bed I slept on for just over four months around the middle of 2005. I shot it on a very battered 2MP Canon Digital Ixus, at its maximum image size of 1600x1200....looking at it now, in 2012, I see proof of the irrelevance of the pixel war to most aspects of actual photo quality, even though this minature (for the time) camera was never state-of-the-art.
