Description:
The Asahi Pentax SP is a sturdy little SLR camera. It was produced for the public making it widely available. The lens mount is the very common m42 screw mount. This means that there are many different lenses fit this body. Moreover these lenses are not only widely available but also very decently priced. This model boasts a 55mm f/1.8 lens. This is great for portraits landscaped and is very fun to use on the streets. The build quality of the Asahi Pentax SP is great and can be used in many different situations due to the image quality and simplicity of use. The ease of uses comes from the semi automatic function. It can be set to aperture priority making the camera choose the proper shutter speed for the lighting conditions.
This camera is for everyone who does not want to break the bank but does want to shoot film. The amount of possible lenses that can be found and use makes this a very diverse camera. We would recommend this Pentax to anyone who wants to learn film photography and for those who want to get back into it.
