Pentax Mv 35Mm Film Camera

[Alkaline] That is what I need for my Pentax K1000 film camera.

[5] Classic 35mm film

[US Plug] Great battery and I'am using it with an Arriflex 35BL2 35mm film camera.

[1x] I use this with a Sony camera to scan 35mm film. It's flawless. I combine with the Essential Film Holder and it works very well.

[-3 to +18 EV] I am upgrading from a K-7 (yep) into the K-1 Mark II and it has been a really great and easy transition. -First off, most of the controls and menus are exactly what I've seen before which made it really easy to set up right out of the box. I really like the additional dial on the top for quick access to things like HDR, bracketing, WiFi. -Secondly, the weight of this camera is substantial but it feels really well balanced in the hands. I've been shooting with either the Sigma 35mm Art or the Pentax-D FA* 85mm. The 85mm pushes my weight limit a bit and I will get a little tired on a long shoot, but the 35mm feels natural. -Lastly (and this is why I'll stick with Pentax as long as possible) the weather sealing is just something I don't see other manufactures doing. This camera feels like a beast that can take the bumps and bruises. When I'm out shooting I'm not constantly worried about not hurting my camera, this thing is a tank. If you shoot Pentax and need full frame then there (literally) is no other option than to go with this body. I know there are many other options out there if you're willing to switch to Cannon or Nikon but for those looking to stay with Pentax, you won't be disappointed. The only gripe I have is with video capture- No 4k option and no 60p at Full HD. I was impressed with the video none the less. The quality coming out at 1080p 24p was great and for slow motion 720p 60p was above my expectations.

[4.35 lb] This is the goat when it comes to 35mm film camera. I 'm glad Leica is still making it. Love it!

[2,760,000 Dot] My last camera was for my college photo class...a 1986 Pentax K1000, film! After that, all I used was basic point n' shoot or phone cameras. This is a big learning curve for me, but so far, it's pretty intuitive! I need to do a little more studying and playing for sure. It's lightweight, the screen is a great size! I really think this was the perfect choice for a novice like me! Plus, I love that it looks a bit like my vintage Pentax :-)

[Luster] Awesome color film in both 35mm and 120!

[72 mm (Front)] To preface this story, this is my first DSLR and my first Pentax. Before this I had owned two mirrorless cameras.  First I started with a Lumix S1 but was looking to upgrade and convinced myself to sell everything to buy into the Fuji GFX system. To my (and many others) surprise I was dissatisfied with not only the build quality of the 50sii but the images I was creating with it. Something just didn't look right. I couldn't place my finger on it but things looked... sterile?  I thought a digital medium format sensor was the answer to replicating my medium format film cameras but alas, this was not the case. I wanted to capture a black and white film look with a digital camera but couldn't afford a Leica monochrome. It was a risky move on my part but I sold my GFX after doing a lot of research into the K3iii monochrome. The first day I took it out I knew I had made the right choice. Images from this camera are pure magic and have tricked many people around me thinking it was film. Match this sensor with a M42 adapter and throw some Super-Takumar, it looks identical to B&W film. Love shooting this thing at night at ridiculously high ISO levels. The build quality is like a tank. View finder is bright and easy to focus. Speaking of focusing, the auto focus is faster than some of the mirrorless cameras Ive used. I don't ever want to go back to mirrorless after using this gem, there's nothing like framing your image through the lens. My only complaint is it takes a second to get used to exposing correctly. You need to be very mindful of blown out highlights. Images match that of any full frame camera I've ever used. I love this thing so much I can only hope Pentax will release a full frame monochrome camera in the future to compete with Leica. Anyway, if you love B&W photography then this is the camera for you.

[0.25 lb] Was given a telephoto lens & some old Pentax film cameras. I wanted to use the telephoto on my Nikon D7100, but it was not the same mount. Did an on line chat with B&H and was directed to this adapter. As soon as it arrived, I attached it to the camera & then attached the lens. It was a perfect fit for both the camera & the lens & I got some great shots that would have been impossible with my camera without this adapter. Thank you B&H for your great service & quick delivery.
