I feel like the only person in the world who owns one of these koni omega rapid style cameras. Mine's just an "M"... doesn't actually say rapid on it.
Lovely camera, that. I had the pleasure of using the first generation Koni Omega (no interchangeable backs), just with the standard 90mm. What a pleasure! I miss it and am still hunting for a nice one (and cheap too:)). It looks rather awkward and unwieldy but it actually isn't! You really forget the bulk of it when you take it out for a spin. The RF is really more than just decent, and that lens is truly hidden gem! Nice vid, glad I found your channel.
Whenever I put vinegar on my fish & chips, it takes me back to darkroom days when I used to use acetic acid! Long live FP4, Kodachrome 2 and DIY Ferraniacolor DIY reversal film! Koni-Omega Rapid - brilliant camera. I bought one cheap in the 1980's. I used to be a camera repairer so I fixed it up. Lovely sharp lens.
