The Konicas were my main cameras in the 80s and 90s, and I've still got them scuffing about in a drawer. I think maybe 2 of the FC-1s would probably work, but my FS-1 gave up the ghost some time ago. Fitting it with a Tamron 24mm made it (almost ) perfect for framing compositions for my ZeroImage pinhole, (I've replaced it with a lighter FC-1 body for that purpose) so I knew it would come in handy someday.The 40mm lens is a very good lens (as most Hexanons are) and being the sharpest (at the time) lens in the world probably started from one source and Parrots.
Anyhow, I have a couple of the Konica 50mm and at least 1 of the 40mm and was happy with them for years before I "upgraded" to Nikon. I really need to try them on film again, but I've not been overwhelmed by their performance on either Fuji FX or MFT with adaptors.
