Pentax ZX-M 35mm SLR Camera (Body Only)

Amazon.com The super-compact Pentax ZX-M camera has straightforward, easy-to-read dial controls, and it offers fully manual operation. It comes with a wide variety of creative, yet user-friendly options, including: multimode exposure system, an advanced light metering system, and a 1/2000-second high-speed shutter. You have the option of choosing one of four exposure modes: the hands-off programmed AE, the depth-oriented aperture-priority AE, the action-oriented shutter-priority AE, and the totally maneuverable metered manual. The easy-to-use exposure compensation lets you quickly adjust the exposure level within a +/- 3 EV range in 1/2 EV steps for bracketing or for intentional under- or overexposure. No matter the lighting conditions, from difficult backlighting to high-contrast situations, the ZX-M's autoexposure modes are designed to give you high-quality, properly exposed images. With the simple push of a button, the memory lock feature holds your exposure settings for up to 10 seconds, letting you reframe your shot without losing your settings. With a top shutter speed of 1/2000 of a second, this camera gives you crisp, sharply focused images, even if your subject is in motion. This high shutter speed makes the ZX-M ideal for sports and other action photography. The built-in self timer can help you avoid camera shake during slow-shutter and bulb applications, while the 12-second delay gives you plenty of time to get in the shot. The preview button lets you check the depth-of-field for your aperture setting before you shoot. This features ensures that you get the effect you're looking for. You can also take advantage of this function when the aperture ring is set on the "A" (auto) position. The external LCD panel and viewfinder display can give you a range of useful photographic data, including: external flash status, shutter speed, aperture, exposure compensation, and out-of-exposure coupling range warning, over- and underexposure indication in metered manual.
