## Description

PENTAX ME SUPER CAMERA W/ PENTAX 50mm STANDARD LENS KIT.

Review: Amazing product and customer service from the seller - I didn’t keep this product but it did arrive in great condition. The camera arrived without a lens, but after brief conversation with their 10 star amazing customer service, a new lens was sent and I was able to use the camera. Aside from that, this product is basically new, functional, and in pristine condition. Worked like a charm and brought back my childhood. Would highly recommend this seller.
Review: Vintage Camera - This is a fun camera for me. Over 40 years ago I bought a Pentex ME and used the heck of it all over the world, to include archaeological digs, and in the military. Finally in the late 1990s it died and repair parts were impossible to find. I missed that camera. Now I have it's replacement. The camera I just bought looks almost brand new and shows no signs of hard use. I also have a couple of Nikon modern SLR, so this old Pentex is just for fun. Besides these ME's are tough little cameras.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I was wanting to know if I could use the lenses from my old Me Pentax super on the newer digital pentax bodies that are coming out?**
A: Yes you can. That is one of the great things about Pentax cameras.

**Q: What kind of mounting does this camera provide for changing lens?**
A: Yes it does take the same mount as the K-1000. It is called k-mount. That is the great thing about Pentax cameras. They all use the K-mount lenses.

**Q: Do you ship to the Czech republic?**
A: Yes I can ship to Czech Republic it would be an additional $40 for shipping

**Q: Does the camera have a built in light meter?**
A: yes - the ME super does have a light meter.  It has auto exposure, manual exposure and a 125th of a sec. shutter speed for flash. ( exposure modes)  The auto exposure mode, one sets the lens aperture and the camera sets the shutter speed.  In manual mode one might use a hand held light meter  for exposure settings, then transfer them to the camera setting - sort of a backup check for the camera settings.  Or maybe use manual mode for very long exposures. ( say photos of stars or the moon)  One first of course has to set the film speed dial for the correct  the ASA of your film.  In side the view finder a  green light on the left by the shutter speeds will indicate if a correct exposure has been chosen.  A red light will indicate a incorrect exposure as well.  If a red light is indicating a over or under exposure,  you simply adjust the aperture on the lens until a green light indicates a correct exposure.
