Item Description
Hello Everyone!

I'm selling my Pentax K-1 up for sale to finance some nice limiteds for my KP. It's in great shape, has no scratches on the LCD, viewfinder, or sensor; no peeling of rubber anywhere on the body; never had any problems with it in terms of reliability. I have taken this camera on photo trips to the beach, Zion National Park, and Death Valley where it performed great!! Will come with original box, battery, two chargers with cord.

The only issue I noticed on a close inspection of the camera is that it has some light scuffing on the bottom portion where the grip material meets the alloy bottom plate. This has not gotten worse over time and has not impacted my ability to use the camera or the functionality of the camera in any way.

Shutter count is 2204.

No longer have the box and manual as it got lost in the move.

Thanks for looking! If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me.

Is your k-1 still available? Also curious why such a low shutter count

HanSoloYakamoto · 12-30-2021, 11:08 PM

Yes it is still available.

As for why the shutter is so low, I bought this camera used when I lived in Osaka with maybe around 300 actuations to replace my K-3 around 3 years ago. Since then it's seen action only occasionally as grad school has gotten more time consuming as well as the fact that when I can shoot, I prefer to do action or wildlife photography with my nikon d5300 (lots of surfing and sea life pics). So for the most part, everyday shooting has been replaced by shorter, specialized outings requiring a telephoto lens that I have already.

I bought the KP at last year's closeout sale and frankly I share that camera with my partner now so that let's me stay in the pentax system at a reduced cost

I hope this helps clear up any confusion and if not feel free to DM me for more!

Thanks for looking.

I purchased a K-3 from HanSoloYakamoto back in 2020. One hundred percent as described. If I wasn’t preparing for several large expenses in January, I would have purchased this K-1 immediately!

**Ray Cox** · 01-08-2022, 07:18 AM

It surprises me that this very capable and gently used camera is still available. It really needs to find a good home and shown some love!

Looks like a great piece of hardware. Identical to the one I shoot with and much lower shutter count!
