Konica Big Mini BM201

The state where the switch is not turned on

If a power supply is switched on, a lens will come out.

This camera is the 2nd generation of a famous Big-mini ( BM201). There is weakness on structure as introduced to other sites.

It seems that there are many troubles where a base cuts while having repeated opening and closing of a back lid, since the flexible base is carrying out to the back lid through the hinge from the main part. It is a famous good camera in the capability which takes a photograph being excellent.

I thought that I also wanted to use at once. Since I got it at a low price, it was in the quite dirty state. It polished after all and became beautiful. Although most characters currently printed by favor have disappeared. This camera does not have unevenness in the surface. Therefore, I think that it is easy to slide down from a hand. It is dangerous if a strap is not attached. Since it is very small, it goes into a pocket easily.

In a dark situation, a stroboscope emits light automatically. It can avoid making it emit light by mode change. However, once it will turn off a switch, it will become auto again.

ビッグミニの2代目のカメラです。たいへん小さくて質感のよいカメラです。私の入手したものはたいへん汚くて、磨いたら文字がほとんど消えてしまいました。電源スイッチを入れると沈胴式の鏡胴が出てきます。このカメラに限らずビッグミニシリーズの弱点は裏蓋と本体をつなぐフレキシブル基盤です。ジャンク箱の中で見かけるカメラの大半はここが完全に切断されています。これは構造上の問題と思われます。裏蓋の液晶表示や操作ボタンはすべてこのフレキシブル基盤によって本体とつながっていますのでここが切れているとまったく作動しません。逆にここさえ壊れていなければかなりの確立で壊れていません。かなり写りが良いと話題になったカメラだそうですね。単焦点のため非常にコンパクトにまとまっています。ワイシャツやＧパンのポケットにも入りそうです。電池はCR123A×1。最短撮影距離0.35m。ネット上を調べましたがもはや正確な発売年も分かりません（91年？）。トホホ。
