Three MT series cameras, the MT-7, MT-9, and MT-11, were introduced in 1986 by Konica. The MT-9 was more advanced to operate than the MT-7 but simpler than the MT-11. It has an autofocus 35mm lens (f/3.5, Tessar-style 4 elements in 3 groups) and automatic exposure system with shutter speeds ranging from 1/10 to 1/500 seconds. It has a manually activated pop-up flash and a motorwind film advance system.
In Japan, the MT series cameras were sold by Konica as the Multi 7, 8 and 9.
