It's not what I hear most of the time. Seriously, I've had a number of Konicas, used them hard, and never had one single one ever fail me. During the same period of about 10 years, I had Leicas which saw about 30% of the use and were into the shop for various ailments about 10 times. Mind you, most of the Konicas were the T, T2 and T3, which were notably rugged cameras (but not half frame). * Henning J.
