Pentax on TV or in the movies

**boriscleto** · 01-05-2015, 12:26 PM

I've been binge watching old Doctor Who episodes lately. In the second serial of the 11th season (Invasion of the Dinosaurs), Sarah Jane Smith is taking picture of the "Tyranosaurus" captured by UNIT with a Spotmatic.

There is a SF-10 seen in Terminator 2.

Does anyone know of any others? I mean besides Ringo's Spotmatic in Hard Day's Night?

Over in Photographic Technique there's a thread about Pentax in the Movies.

It's surprising to see how visible Pentax used to be!

I recently worked on an upcoming season of the Top Model franchise, and one of special guest photographers was shooting on Pentax. This was only for retro film photography stuff, so I guess that makes sense.

Jimmy Olsen in Superman III. The one that was so bad it was dropped from the continuity...(Superman Returns was supposed to follow the events of Superman II)
