Linda Eastman was the notable, family photographer...so I wonder if she also used Pentax? Does bring back very fond memories of the M42 Pentax cameras...

I remember seeing pictures of George Harrison shooting with one as well in the Beatles documentary Eight Days A Week and the George Harrison documentary Living in the Material World. It would behoove Pentax to get their cameras into the hands of a few celebrities today.

Remarkably today's "hipsters" are copying completely his look.

As far as I know, Linda shot primarily with a Nikon. But there are many images that she took of both Paul and Ringo with them holding an Asahi Pentax.

And hereʻs Brad Pitt levitating his Pentax....

Pentax 67 seems to be a women's camera.
