Hanimex's standard prime for Konica AR — the 35mm f/2.8 with AE coupling for metering.

The Hanimex 35mm f/2.8 AE Coupled for Konica AR is a budget standard prime with AE (auto-exposure) coupling for metering compatibility with Konica AR-mount cameras. The 35mm provides a useful wide-normal perspective. The AE coupling enables automatic exposure on compatible Konica bodies. A basic budget alternative to Konica's own Hexanon lenses.

Optical performance is basic. Sharpness is acceptable. The AE coupling is the main feature — enabling auto-exposure on Konica cameras. The f/2.8 at 35mm provides a useful standard perspective. Build quality is basic Hanimex. Adequate for casual photography on Konica AR bodies. Konica Hexanon alternatives are dramatically better.

Konica AR mount with AE coupling. Filter thread varies. Weight varies. Build quality is basic. Manual focus. The AE coupling enables automatic exposure — a practical convenience. The Konica AR mount is discontinued. Adapts to mirrorless via AR adapters.

Very cheap. Not recommended when Hexanon alternatives exist at similar prices. The AE coupling adds practical value on Konica bodies. Only for Konica AR system users. The Hexanon 35mm lenses are superior in every way.
