AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Pentax K2 is a 35mm SLR camera introduced by Pentax in 1975.
It was the flagship camera of a trio (together with the KX and the KM) of the featuring new K lens mount.
It has been manufactured for a very short period so it is quite rare and loved by collectors.
The cameras all have full aperture TTL exposure metering, with a black indicator needle visible to the right in the viewfinder. The K2 has aperture priority automatic exposure, selected on the shutter speed dial. The camera selects the proper shutter speed between 1/1000 and 8 seconds when the shutter release is depressed. Other notable features of the K2 are the mirror lockup, and that shutter speeds from 1/125 to 1/1000 second and 'B' work without battery power.

----------------------------------

The camera comes from a private collection and is in superb MINT condition despite the age.
Surely not much used. Minor imperfections wich may occur depends exclusively on long storage.
