AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Asahi Pentax K1000 for sale, an absolute icon of film photography, famous for its ruggedness ("tank") and ease of use that have made it the ideal camera for students and beginners for decades. Produced since 1976, it is a 35mm SLR that is completely mechanical and manual: the only electronic part is the TTL through-the-lens meter, powered by a LR44/SR44 battery.


The camera body is paired with the SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/2 lens, a 'normal' compact and sharp, known for the SMC (Super Multi Coating) treatment that ensures excellent contrast and resistance to reflections. The rubberized silk curtain shutter offers speeds from 1 s to 1/1000 s, plus B exposure.


The specimen includes the original Pronto case in black faux leather (often called a 'never-ready case' by enthusiasts, but excellent for protection) and the original Asahi Pentax lens cap. The telltale signs of aging are evident, but the ensemble appears well preserved. A perfect set for anyone who really wants to learn how to photograph by manually controlling shutter speeds and apertures.
