Review on πŸ“· Pentax K1000 Manual Focus SLR Film Camera Bundle with 50mm Pentax Lens by Tony Pierce

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The camera came unusable (Pentax K1000)

The camera came as described, used but cosmetically in good condition. The original list and "checklist" that came with the camera stated that the camera was in good condition and had taken test shots. But after I took it out and examined it, the camera mirror got stuck in the up position. After pressing the trigger a couple of times it went down again, but the next time it just stayed locked. Obviously this makes the camera pretty much useless as you can't see through the viewfinder. I think repairs are possible but the camera was expensive for being over 30 years old, for this price I thought I was buying a working camera that had been checked/serviced by a professional.
