Pentax 17 Half-Frame 35mm Film Camera – Boxed
Pentax's celebrated return to film, and the first all-new film camera from a major manufacturer in decades. It shoots half-frame, so a 36-exposure roll gives you around 72 shots, which halves your cost per frame and makes shooting film far less precious.
Features
- Half-frame format: roughly 72 shots from a 36-exposure roll, in vertical portrait orientation
- HD PENTAX Lens 25mm f/3.5 (about 37mm equivalent), a 3-element design with Pentax's HD multi-coating
- Zone focus with six settings, from 0.25m macro through to infinity, with clear icons on the lens ring
- Seven shooting modes on the top dial: Auto, Program, Bokeh, Slow-speed sync, Slow-speed sync + flash, plus Bulb
- ISO 50–3200 dial and ±2 stop exposure compensation
- Built-in flash
- Genuine mechanical film advance lever and rewind crank, so winding on is part of the experience
- Hot shoe for external flash
- Cable release socket and tripod socket
- Magnesium alloy top plate and aluminium body, made to Pentax's "Craftsmanship by Pentax" standard
- 40.5mm filter thread
- Runs on a single CR2 battery
Included
