I still have my old MX, a fantastic little mechanical manual film camera. Bought it new back in 1981, still working just fine! I won't be selling that mind.

TC3. You should see a lot of stuff on ebay including the old M42 screw lenses that should work with a K adapter (in stop down metered manual mode). It's worth knowing that the lenses around at the same time as the MX do not have the A setting on the aperture ring, not sure if that would be an issue for you though. If you can I'd go for the genuine Pentax lenses as they tend to be better than some of the many third party ones. Most tend to be manual focus.

Don't forget, too that many of the lesser-know brands of camera used the Pentax K-mount, so don't limit yourself to looking at the Pentax brand.

Chinon for instance.
I'm fuming, I just threw away 2 chinon cameras and several zoom lenses, because nobody wanted them, even for free :smt013
You could have had them for the postage grrrrrrr

Hi there TC3. Sorry about the long delay in replying. I was busy last night and today. Right I only have two lenses for sale as I obviously want to keep the origional lense with the penatx MX. I have one sigma Mini-Tele 135mm f:3.5 for all zooming type photography, complete with both dust covers and reinforced leather carry case. The other is a 28mm f:2.8 Photax Super Paragon wide angle lense. I have other goodies such as light meters and a flash and of course the Pentax MX. So let me know. ATB Chris.
