Flashes and Strobes
A variety of different flashes and strobes was available for the Konica SLR system over the years. Strobes of other manufacturers can also be used on the Konica bodies without problems, the frequently offer more functions than the Konica strobes, which are mostly quite simple. Most of the Konica strobes do not even offer tilt and swivel heads.
For the automatic control of the camera's electronics by the strobe, as available on the electronic bodies 
FS-1, FC-1, FP-1, and FT-1, a matching system flash is required, obviously.
