This Pentax K 1000 Film Camera is built like a tank AND is a fun way to get introduced to using real FILM to make a photograph.  With film, you must slow down, compose and make adjustments so that you can get the photo you see in your head.
With this camera you also get the instruction manual AND a personal one on one lesson on how to use it from Scott Evans, the Director of the Camera Museum in McDonough, Ga.
Scott has been a full time photographer for over 40 years and has given classes for beginners and pros for years. This is a fantastic gift for yourself or a high school or college graduation.
