Chronology of cameras Konica 

Tranduction de Alphonse Khuu

The MT-7 is part of a collection of three cameras showed during the Photokina 86. The other two models were the MT-9 and MT-11, this latter being the most sophisticated.
The MT-7 is equipped with a mechanical shutter for only one shutter speed (1/125 sec) and a fix-focus lens 4 / 36mm, with 4 elements in 3 groups. There are three apertures set by the choice of sensitivity (f / 8 to 100 iso, f/11 for 200 and f/16 for 400 iso)

The loading, the film advance, the winding and the rewinding are motorized. The setting function of flash is manual.

The showed camera has a data timer (auto-date function).
