Yes the case does seem a bit big. There were not other lenses there.

Ok great. Thanks for all the info! I’ve been learning lots. Still feel it was a great buy for $8.

I’ll keep my eyes open for the Takumar 55 1.8 to go with my S!

Well the thrift stores were kind to me again. Just picked up this great lens with the case for a whole $8! If I am not mistaken, I believe I was told this is one of 2 lenses that originally came with the Pentax S.

Hey all. Just picked up a box of cameras that had 5 pentax's in it from one of my local thrift stores. Here is what I got.
Asahi Pentax SP with Super Takumar 1:1.8 55mm
Asahi Pentax K1000 (japan)
Asahi Pentax K1000 (Taiwan)
2 Pentax SF1's. one with SMC Pentax-M 1:2 50mm
The box had none pentax cameras as well. 6 more in total but not sure if I am allowed to discuss them here. I got the whole box for $100. Not too bad I think

Eric now has the camera. $245 or a CLA and repair the shutter issue. I think that is very reasonable. Looking forward to getting it back!

Thank you. It is in pretty amazing condition for a thrift store find. The shutter curtain is sticking at the moment. I sent it to Eric Hendrickson to have it CLA’d and looked at. Hopefully I’ll hear back soon.

Well, I sent off the camera to Eric for a CLA and to see if the shutter issue can be resolved. I will post an update once it is returned.

I tried looking up Erik Hendriksen but only found one other post mentioning that he fixed a camera. I cannot find a way to contact him.

Ok great. I emailed Sun Camera here in Canada and will see what they say. Not sure if they are the best or not. I did find the post about Pentax repair and I believe they are the only authorized dealers in Canada. I did find when opening the back that the shutter curtain doesn’t close all the way. I need to pull it a bit to get it to close. Hopefully this would be an easy repair.

Thanks for all the replies. It’s much appreciated. I still can’t get over finding this camera and the fact of how mint it is. A few people mentioned a CLA. not sure what that is. Can someone enlighten me?

Hi all, new to the forum and wanted to share something with you all. I collect vintage cameras and picked up a box of old cameras from a thrift store today. I had no idea how rare the Pentax S camera was until I looked it up. This one is very mint and I’m excited to own it. Just wondering if the lens that goes with it is correct for this camera.

Thanks!
