AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Pentax KX was introduced in 1975. Like many Pentax cameras from this era, it is also known for its sturdiness and classic design. This analog camera has to be fully manual and does not have automatic functions. The Pentax KX operates mechanically and only needs batteries for the light meter. A very fine solid device, suitable for the more advanced photographer. Chronologically, it has a few signs of former use. I have installed new Varta batteries. The light meter has stopped working. I could not test its accuracy. The shutter speeds sound correct by ear. Legendary Pentax with a rugged, rock-solid character.

See the photos to get a good sense of the camera's condition; they are part of the description. You get what you see!

Shipping with DPD, GLS, or DHL.

It is well packaged and shipped quickly. We are not responsible for additional taxes levied outside the EU or for returns if you are not at home.

Good luck with the auction and success!
