Item Description
Here is a fully functioning fully mechanical beauty from Pentax's heyday: the black paint Pentax SL.
As you can see in the photos this camera shows it has been used, but not abused. There is a little wear to the paint, but no dents. I have been watching these cameras on the used market in Japan for several years and this is a really nice and clean example.
This camera has been film tested with negative film and the photos came out fine. Speeds seem accurate at all speeds, with no capping at higher speeds. Film wind is smooth, finder has a few specs of dust but is bright and clear, self timer works, and the back opens and closes with a positive action. Flash sync and film counter work fine.
The all metal and glass 55/1.8 Super Takumar is in great condition, and is a fantastic lens. Anyone who has shot this lens knows it is one of Asahi Optical's great lenses. It has a few specs of dust, but no haze, fungus, or separation. Focus is a dream, aperture clicks are positive, aperture blades are perfect. This lens is a high water mark for Pentax.
