simple, small, lightweight, easy to hold and use. from Bhphotovideo.com Pros: Basic, manual, perfect for a serious "back to basics" photographer.
Cons: I'm not really sure about the customer from Shopping.com the camera is simple, the user actually understands what's going on with the settings, and it holds up to student use. from Amazon.com This is a great camera that anyone can learn to use. Everything on it works well; I've had no problems with it whatsoever. There are no regrets with this purchase! from Amazon.com digital-electronic monstrosities (which are unbelievably expensive) simply cannot produce images like a simple manual camera with a good 50mm lens. from Amazon.com i intentionally got an all manual film camera to force me to learn the basics of photography. from Amazon.com I intentionally got an all manual film camera to force me to learn the basics of photography. This little beauty performs perfectly with its real pentaprism, DOF preview, and fast 50mm lens.

I bought 35 of these for my high school photography program because we had Pentax K-1000's which lasted decades. They are no longer produced, and this is a knock-off that even has the same lens mount

Pros: Inexpensive, wide exposure range, can operate without battery
Cons: Unreliable, very basic, poor lens quality, poor
