Hanimex's wide-angle for Konica AR — a budget 28mm for the discontinued Konica system.
The Hanimex 28mm f/2.8 AR is a wide-angle prime from Hanimex for Konica's AR-mount SLR cameras. The Konica AR (Auto Reflex) mount was used across Konica's film SLR range and is adaptable to modern mirrorless cameras, making AR-mount lenses more accessible than some other vintage systems.
The lens delivers 28mm at f/2.8 maximum aperture with Konica AR bayonet coupling, manual focus, manual aperture, and full-frame 35mm coverage. Budget Hanimex construction.
The Konica AR mount's adaptability to Sony FE, Micro Four Thirds, and other mirrorless mounts via commercially available adapters gives these lenses continued utility beyond Konica film bodies. The 28mm f/2.8 focal length is useful for street and documentary photography.
Test Konica AR coupling. Check aperture ring and focus ring operation. Inspect elements for clarity. For modern adaptation, confirm Konica AR adapters are available for the target mount.
