One of the most classic cameras ever built. A
completely manual SLR. Through the lens CdS
exposure meter. ISO of 20 to 3200. X contact
hot shoe for cordless flash connection. X
Flash sync at 1/60sec. There were so many
k-1000's made that the dies wore out and it
didn't make financial sense for pentax to
create new ones. I have dropped this rugged
camera more than once and it keeps going. My
camera currently needs lubrication as the
shutter can stick in cold weather. I have
taken more pictures with this camera than
with any other.
