AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Lot Pentax MX (Silver) + SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/1.7 Lens + Original Leather Case & French Manual + National PE-300 Flash

Superb Pentax MX 35mm SLR camera body in chrome/silver finish. Known to be one of the most compact and reliable mechanical 35mm bodies ever built, it is accompanied by its standard 50mm lens, its original leather carrying case, and its user manual printed in French.

The SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/1.7 lens is one of the brand’s best standard lenses ever produced for its film cameras. It is an absolutely essential choice to accompany a body like the Pentax ME.

Body: Very good overall visual condition (see photos). The chrome is clean and the black coating is well preserved.
Case: Patina of use due to time, perfectly protecting the device.

Shutter release: The winding mechanism is smooth. The shutter fires correctly after each cocking of the lever.

Test: The camera has not been recently tested with film nor with batteries for the light meter. It is sold as is, ideal for a collector, a mechanical enthusiast, or for a maintenance refresh.

Items included in the lot:
- Pentax MX body (Serial number: 9248001)
- SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/1.7 lens with its front cap
- Original leather protective case with strap
- Original user manual in French
- National PE-300 flash
