AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Up for auction: a prestigious, compact and professional single-lens reflex (SLR) camera that is entirely mechanical: the Pentax MX in the classic, elegant chrome finish, manufactured in Japan by Asahi Optical Co. between 1976 and 1985.
The lot is presented in excellent overall condition, with normal and light signs of use consistent with the object's age, and is complete with its ultra-bright standard lens and the side triangular metal rings with its strap.
Optics: The camera mounts the extraordinary and renowned original standard lens SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/1.4. The lenses are in excellent condition, clean and completely free of scratches or traces of internal mold or fungi; only light traces of physiological dust deposited under the lens glass are noted, a purely cosmetic detail due to age that does not affect the quality of the shot or the optical rendering of the image in any way. The inner diaphragm blades are dry and responsive.
Mechanical: The lot has been tested and is functioning. Being a mechanical shutter on the horizontally sliding focal plane with a silky rubberized finish,
Aesthetics: Excellent overall condition, as clearly documented by the photographs. The solid and robust metal body preserves the splendid original chrome finish, displaying an excellent visual impact.
International tracked shipping, fully insured and professionally ultra-protective packaging to guarantee maximum safety during transit.
