The Konica TC-X was a 35mm SLR film camera which was manufactured between 1985 and 1987 by Cosina for Konica, not by Konica themselves. The TC-X featured a shutter-priority, through-the-lens automatic exposure mechanism. The body of the TC-X was completely made of plastic. In 1983, it was not clear if the market would accept such a plastic camera as there were doubts concerning ruggedness and durability.
