| Latest Review Posted | Pentax A3 / A3000
The greatest advantage of this camera in my mind is that it takes two ordinary AA batteries.
Not a hugely automated, but rugged and reliable.
I view it somewhat like the K1000 of the A-series, although it does require batteries to activate the shutter and the winder, and there is no manual winding. If you find a P3/P3N for cheap, and have button batteries, I'd recommend the P3/P3N instead.
The fact that it manually rewinds is just another quirk.
In short, if you are looking for lots of features look elsewhere, but if you want a camera that runs on regular batteries, this is a camera for you :) |
