Pentax LX Video 1: Features, Layout, and History

Описание: Asahi Pentax released the LX in 1980, kicking off a staggering 21-year production run that saw this venerable and stunning camera outlast all of its contemporaries as well as many that came after it. Today, the LX remains a venerable and much loved camera that takes exceptional photos, but that also presents a challenge in some ways. Repairing a Pentax LX now is exceedingly hard and, as of this video's release, I know of only one shop in the world (located in the UK) that will take a Pentax LX for repair. In general, however, these are reliable cameras and as long as they work well they are reliable and can meet any creative vision that any photographer can trust it with.
