Item Description
Black Pentax KX with SMC-M 50mm f/2 (the lens in the picture is incorrect.) Eric overhauled this camera in March 2016 and it works great. Cosmetics are very nice, too. It includes an SMC-M 50mm f/2 with the original AP lens cap (squeeze-type, not press-on.) I will accept reasonable offers if this has not been picked up as the asking price by November 17.

If you'd like additional photos, let me know. The camera has very minimal wear but does have brassing at the strap lugs. SN is 8481890, lens SN is 3768428

Great body. I bought mine brand new when they came out and it has worked like a charm ever since. We're talking nearly 40 years here...

This is definitely the best-looking KX I've ever seen. And to have it in such good condition in black is pretty uncommon. And since it's been overhauled, it's also going to keep working well for a long time.

One of the all time best Pentax cameras. I also bought mine new and doubt I will ever part with it.

Although mine is downright worn-out, no black paint left, you'd have to wrestle it away from me. A great, great camera. Someone should jump on this one.

If I didn't already own a well worn black KX I'd jump on this...fantastic camera. Good luck with the sale, someone is going to love this in their arsenal

K David · 11-24-2016, 11:20 PM

Bump. The KX is still available. This would be a fantastic gift for a camera collector, user, or enthusiast in your life.

Does this KX have the matte / microprism ring focusing screen or the split image?

Matte and microprism, no split image.

Weekend bump. I can still get this to you in time for Christmas in the U.S., and maybe parts of Europe.

Anyone looking for a great film camera should consider the KX.
