PENTAX 17 Fixed-Focal length compact film camera designed
PENTAX 17 Fixed-Focal length compact film camera designed to capture half-size photographs
Enjoy manual film winding/rewinding actions
The PENTAX 17 features an easy-loading system to prevent film-loading errors. Just insert the roll of film and pull the film leader to the film end indicator, close the camera’s back cover, and manually keep winding the film until the film counter reaches “0” (zero). After finishing the roll of film, manually rewind it to complete the manual winding/rewinding actions which are only available with film cameras
Note holder to keep track of the film in use
By cutting out the end of the film package and inserting it into the camera’s note holder, you can keep track of the type of film in use with just a quick glance
Indicator lamps to inform camera operation status and provide warnings
The PENTAX 17 provides two indicator lamps to the right of the viewfinder eyepiece. These blink as warnings to prevent operational errors, when you attempt to take pictures with the lens cap on, fail to wind the film to the next frame, or set the focus zone to Tabletop or Macro
Cable switch option, useful in extended-exposure photography
The PENTAX 17 accepts the optional CS-205 Cable Switch, which comes in handy when using a tripod for scenic photography or employing extended exposures in bulb-mode shooting. The cable switch helps you capture sharp, clear photos by minimizing camera shake

¡De película!
Excelente calidad ptica. Buena construccin, acorde al precio (es decir, hay plsticos, pero parecen resistentes). Perfecta como punto de partida para enamorarse de la fotografa de pelcula, propiciando la creatividad y el ahorro en carretes, al ser de medio formato.
En cuanto a las quejas del precio, creo que no estn justificadas, viendo que compite con un mercado de segunda mano arriesgado y con cmaras nuevas que no bajan del doble de su PVP.
I own a lot of film cameras and they are showing their age. It was a pleasure to open the box and see a brand new film camera. A film camera that I didn’t have to check if the light seals needed replacing or the lens had fungus or the meter didn’t work etc.
I am going to enjoy using this camera, I think it is well made and easy to use. I’m in no doubt that the images it produces will be good. I believe it’s been aimed at beginners, I have used various cameras for over 50 years and did not hesitate in purchasing the Pentax. Expensive, I suppose so, but you’re getting a brand new film camera from a major manufacturer and a warranty.
