There is the fabled Pentax Tethering.

Unless that is one of the older bodies. Probably is.

Hope this hasn't been mentined before - but is the camera used in this movie "Well Take Manhattan" a Pentax?

Looks like a Pentax H2.

Just watched 'Secretariat' on cable - It is set in the period 1970-73ish and has lots of scenes with 'press core'. Pentax bodies everywhere as well as those 70s cool circular headed moulded plastic flashguns that Pentax used to sell.

Not exactly a movie or TV show, but an advertisement! Not for Pentax though, but a local HongKong beer I think. Not one, not two, but THREE K-7s!

Thumbs up on the catch Alizarine!

Found a K100D on 1755 – The Lisbon Earthquake (1755 - Das Erdbeben von Lissabon), a ZDF "program that shows how the quake unfolded and draws many parallels to the tsunamis of 2004 and the perpetually threatened California coastline, including crisis management and city planning".

Found it interesting enough to post it here; researchers at the Lisbon Geological Institute recreate the movement of the tectonic plates that lead to the earthquake and Pentax gear is being used on the study. How about that?

This is clearly an Asahiflex used (in the hands of the middle guy in Bert Haanstra's Zoo (the full version of that funny documentary is on Youtube):

It's not a film though but a comic, so i hope it isn't too off-topic.

It's in Gantz.
Pentax K20D with a sigma lens, not sure which lens it is though, 10-20 maybe?

I hope it's ok to post a follow up to Anvh's post a couple of pages before...

Same manga, but an earlier chapter

I think the maker of Gantz (Hiroya Oku) is a Pentax fan.... or... perhaps a Pentax user too? hehe

Would need to look into that

I just watched Primal, and the girl was using a Pentax DSLR.

Really? Hmm I don't think I noticed that when I saw it. Thanks for the tip, will look for a DVD copy somewhere

Yep! I had to rewind to check, it's a Pentax.

Not sure which model...

I started filming in Mar 2009 so probably a K20, K100D, K200 possibly a KM/K2000 since that was the cheapest at the time
