PENTAX Compact Film Camera

PENTAX Compact Film Cameras with Film

If you love using 35mm film or are a complete beginner with a keen interest, Pentax compact film cameras with film are a good choice. Being a point and shoot camera, they're easy to use. Complete with a wealth of features you won't be disappointed with the images you can produce. 

Features

Most Pentax film cameras come with auto focus to make shooting quick and easy. With a range of different zoom features, you can shoot from afar or up close and personal. A typical example would be ranges of 28-90mm though some models have an even more powerful zoom. 

Complete with flash and built-in red-eye reduction, your portraits will look natural in any light. Also with a built-in timer, you can take self-portraits of group shot without touching the camera. Some models have a panoramic feature for landscape pictures. The time stamp facility allows you to record when your photos were taken. 

Film winding is automatic and when your film is finished, the camera winds backwards ready for development. Film speeds are automatically set, with most films complete with DX coding so you don't need to make any adjustments to the film once it's in place. 

Most Pentax film cameras come with a leather pouch to store it in as well as a neck strap. 

Build

When these cameras first came out they were cutting edge technology, being the smallest and most lightweight film camera available. They are therefore well made and sleek so you can fit them in your pocket. 

Many professional photographers prefer to use film to digital, feeling it has a more distinctive and authentic look. Some will go so far as to say that colours and images are clearer on film than in a digital format. Extra film is available in a wide variety of types depending on what look you are going for.
