The Asahi Pentax Spotmatic SP is the most simple expression of an all mechanical, and this is why we love it so much. It’s perfect balanced, smooth with an elegant metal body and a smooth, satisfying feel. Everything is manual, so you set the shutter speed, aperture and focus yourself, which makes each photo feel personal and carefully made. Its simple controls and bright viewfinder make it easy to learn on, just like the Pentax K1000 that came after it. The 55mm f2 Takumar lens is known for its sharp details and warm, gentle colours, perfect for portraits and everyday life. Thanks to the M42 screw mount, a large choice of affordable lenses is waiting for you as your photography grows.
