Ide bez baterije

Designed as a `party camera`, the Konica Kanpai (or Konica Kanpa!), meaning `cheers` in Japanese, reacts to voices and tries to shoot the source of the sound. The camera itself is a basic fixed focus model with flash, but also a waist-level finder. The main attraction is its voice-activation, though. After adjusting to the ambient sound level, the camera reacts to loud voices or noises, indicated by a row of LEDs on the front. Standing on its funny tripod with basket shoes, it turns within a 45° angle toward the source of the sound and takes a picture automatically. As the model name implies, the intention is to take pictures when everyone at the table shouts `kampai`, without user intervention. The Konica Kanpai was released in 1989, and cost 216 US dollars or 4 000 yen. It was sold in red and black colour, and a variation clad in a collage of the letters P, A, R, T, Y.
