It looks a lot more complete than I was expecting.
A lot more usable than I was expecting.

A little more expensive as well, but then, it is a Pentax.0.
About the same as 120 gallons of gas,  in early 1973 that would have been about 
$40, in 1974 that would have been about $60.
I can't remember exactly how much I paiid for my first Pentax (SP II + 
50mm/f1.4) in 1972,
but I'm pretty sure I paid significantly more than that.
The place in the UK offering the new beastie also offers (when in stock) the 
K1000 for over £100 less.   Although that in itself is daylight robbery, I know 
which I would choose.

The problem with the camera from the POV of the PDML isn't the camera, it's that we are all too fucking old. The target market isn't a bunch of people in God's waiting room.
