The Pentax Spotmatic 35 mm Film camera is a classic SLR camera that offers a vintage feel.
This Pentax camera was the first model to feature a through-the-lens light exposure,making it a forerunner for
generations of cameras to
come.Aside from the light metering,which is powered by a 1.35-volt battery,the inner working of this SLR camera are entirely
mechanical.Setting
exposure on this Pentax camera is as easy as centering a needle to the right of the viewfinder,and keeping track of the film is
done with a counter mechanism
on the right side of the body.Beside the light metering system,another aspect that helps set the Pentax Spotmatic apart is the
versitilty of the
attachments.Lenses can be added or removed using a 42 mm Pentax/Praktica
screw thread.The upshot is that this makes the
Pentax Spotmatic
deverse in terms of the lenses one can use with it.Most importantly,not only can a photographer use a variety of lenses,but also
the result of
shots may not disappoint either.Overall,for film enthusiast who prefer classic feel to modern photos,the Pentax Spotmatic is spot
on.
Lens Mount Pentax M42
s/n will be provided upon request.
I don't know if this works,so you may test it in my presence before you get it,if you want.
The Pentax Spotmatic is one of the greatest photography Learning tools one can get.The lightmeter in the Pentax may also help
you to adjust settings.You may use hearing aid battery of Zink air type Panasonic PR312 [PR41],as this battery should fit
nicely.Other hearing aid batteries are to large and the
battery cover will not fit.The Super Takumar is a Sharp lens,even if its an
oldtimer.Prints can be made as large as 16x20 from
these cameras.Meters are pretty close even for slide film.They have stopdown
metering.Which means the lens stops down to
the fstop when you meter,that
allows you to see real depth of field of the photo.Over all, most of these
cameras were produced in the 60s.It is said that this
camera has the simplest manual metering system to be found.Accesories and
lenses are numerous,and readily available.A
camera for folks looking to learn photograpy ,or who simply want a camera that lets you do the thinking rather than the
machine.This is a stock photo.
