Asahiflex IIA: Overview Training

**FozzFoster** · 07-30-2022, 07:16 PM - **5 Likes**

The Asahiflex camera series are a M37 screwmount vintage great-grandfather to the Pentax brand we know today.

Manufactured by the Asahi Optical Co. in the 1950s, that same company would go on to produce the M42 mount 'Asahi Pentax' camera that would bare the name of the brand for all cameras thereafter.

These sort of overview videos helped encourage me to get into photography, especially film photography where every shot counts!

These cameras are not very common and can be a bit intimidating to use the very manual photographic acquisition processes. Therefore, I'm pleased to present our PentaxTips Asahiflex IIA overview training video!

I hope you enjoy!
