Description from the seller

Asahi Pentax SV in working condition but requiring cleaning (dirty viewfinder) and a service (if it operates correctly in fair weather, the mirror rises slowly and the slow speeds are hesitant in cold weather, a sign that the lubricants have dried up), reasons why it is advertised "for parts". There is a very small fungus in the viewfinder (easy to remove during a service).

Model preceding the Spotmatic manufactured between 1962 and 1968. It was marketed mainly under its American name Honeywell Pentax H3v, so it is therefore a relatively rare model under the Pentax SV name.

Camera without light meter
Shutter speeds from 1 sec to 1/1000 sec
M42 mount
Weight: 585 g
