Popular student camera, this particular Pentax K1000 is in perfect functional and cosmetic condition and will suit an advanced film-shooter just as well. "Special Edition" variant with a more convenient focusing screen.

 

FUNCTION

Shutter and film transport work properly. Meter responds to light, lens aperture and shutter speed settings, but accuracy was not verified with film. Light seals and mirror guard have just been replaced ($25 value) .
 

COSMETICS

Excellent. No major scratches or dents, very minor paint loss on the film door frame and micro-scratches on the bottom from normal use. Clean and sharp lettering on the shutter speed dial. Focusing screen and viewfinder are bright and dust-free. Original leatherette is very good condition, with a couple of small areas of discoloration on the back - please see photos.
