Pentax Program A in excellent functional and cosmetic condition. Compact, easy to use camera with metal leaf shutter, Aperture-priority mode and depth-of-field preview lever. This model was produced for European and Japanese market in early 80's (European "Camera of the Year" 1983), and is identical to North American "Program Plus".

 

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, just micro-scratches throughout from normal use. Clean and sharp lettering on the dials and buttons. Focusing screen and viewfinder are bright and practically dust-free. Original leatherette is in excellent condition. This body is missing original finger grip, which can be purchased separately on eBay.
