Pentax ME 35mm SLR Film Camera with 50mm f/2 Prime Lens

This robust and at the same time light camera was produced in the late 70´s and was the predecessor to the ME Super. This camera was manufactured in Japan.

Featuring aperture-preferred automatic electronic exposure control leaving the focusing and aperture to the user which makes it a really nice camera to learn about photography as well for shooting casual, street photography or simply as your everyday camera.

A lot of people have a cult for the K1000 but the ME has better portability as its size and lightness are unique for a SLR at the time, without compromising the size of the view finder or functionality.
