The SPF, one of the last and most refined Spotmatics, adds open-aperture metering for Super Multi Coated Takumar lenses while retaining everything photographers love about the system: an exceptionally bright viewfinder, silky-smooth controls, and rock-solid mechanical construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included \u003cstrong\u003eSuper Takumar 55mm f\/2\u003c\/strong\u003e is a gem in its own right. Compact, sharp, and full of character, it produces beautiful color rendition and smooth out-of-focus areas that have made Takumar lenses cult favorites among both film shooters and mirrorless users. Adapted to modern cameras, these lenses are still widely sought after for their vintage rendering and impeccable build quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's something wonderfully honest about shooting a Spotmatic. No automation, no distractions, just a beautifully machined camera that rewards slowing down and paying attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: EXCELLENT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis camera kit is in excellent condition with only minor cosmetic wear consistent with careful use over the years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe camera is fully functional, with smooth film advance, accurate metering, and properly operating shutter speeds. The included \u003cstrong\u003e55mm f\/2 Super Takumar has very slight internal haze\u003c\/strong\u003e, which should have minimal impact on normal photography and may contribute a subtle softness or glow in challenging lighting conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, this is a wonderfully clean example of one of Pentax's most iconic film SLR systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePentax Spotmatic SPF camera body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuper Takumar 55mm f\/2 lens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe usually ship within two business days of receiving payment.
