Obviously a Pentax because it has a Takumars lens…seriously, I thought I knew SLRs pretty well, I have no clue what this is…well, a Praktica, ~~I just don’t know which one~~…I guess it's a Praktica IV M...The same seller I just bought a Praktica LTL from. The Flektogon 35/2.8 had haze and the Sonnar 135/3.5 had a large spot of mildew on one of the front elements

Paid way too much...

An Optio S40 - so it's a Pentax and must really be worth a lot!

OTOH, you could buy around 30 of these Optio S40's for the same price

35mmfilmfan · 11-22-2021, 11:16 AM

One can but hope that it is a typo for £33.60

Only Exc+4? I would have thought it would be “Next to Mint” at least.

Whatever it is, he has quite a few of them listed - maybe he has raided Santa's sack ?

49mm focal length ? Right.

This is even worse than the deluded folks in the classifieds. According to Ricoh South Africa, the KP and K-3 II is still available. K-3 III? Never heard of it.

https://www.ricoh-imaging.co.za/en/ricoh-imaging-digital-slr.html

To add to the confusion, this dealer lists the K-3 III. If that is too expensive, you could consider a K-S2. Really!

The above page is titled "Pentax Archives." Do they know something that I do not?

I looked at this and thought 'Wednesday Thursday Friday' ?!?!? Maybe there is someone to whom this would appeal - somewhere.
