Overview
The Konica Hexanon 28mm f/3.5 was Konica's compact wide-angle solution for their AR system. While slower than some competitors, it delivered excellent sharpness in a small package. The 28mm focal length became the standard 'wide' for photojournalists and travel photographers, offering enough width for environmental shots without extreme distortion.
Verdict: A solid, no-nonsense wide-angle. It won't wow you with character, but it delivers sharp, clean results every time. Perfect for landscape and travel work on adapted mirrorless cameras.
