Vintage Asahi PENTAX KM 35mm SLR Film Camera W/ SMC Pentax 1:1.8 55mm Lens

here we're going to be looking over this asahi pentax kx 35 millimeter film slr camera equipped with the 55 millimeter f 1.8 lens and uh the kx is a little bit higher end model than the k1000 that is much more well known because it was made for so much longer but back in the 70s when these when this series came out the kx was actually a much higher end model featuring a self timer a stop down preview a little shutter lock and a little bit nicer match system inside of the viewfinder what i thought i'd do here is just step down through the shutter speeds and demonstrate what works about this camera and i'm also going to show some things that are the reason why i'm declaring it for parts are not working most of it actually works but i do want you to be aware of a few things and the purpose of this video is to show this almost as if you have it in your hands and you're seeing this for yours
