Promaster Epic entry-level handheld SLR

Well I was more than happy with this camera, although I was a little annoyed that that huge lens wasn't included in the picture. "Pentax lens" Back to the review, this is the best and an easy guide for a beginner like me, this camera is 100% manual in every way. Quiet, surprisingly light, it arrived quietly and quickly and the instructions are really good and detailed.

Since I need a camera for my practice, I like having a manufacturer's warranty in case the camera breaks. I ran a roll of film through the camera and am more than happy with the result. The double exposure button is also an added…

Maybe a broken camera?

I bought these after my old school Pentax broke. I can't believe I spent so much money on this. Nothing valuable. The cheap plastic body isn't as good as the Pentax. Rewinding is ridiculously difficult too. If you let go, it spins backwards and you have to rewind the entire tape again. However, my biggest issue with this set is the lens. I couldn't get this stupid lens to focus for me at all. I used it for a class where I had to use 50mm and the POS focused on one side of the lens and not the…
