At first I thought, "Wow, the same camera I had". Then I though, "That is just plain silly". "What would Ringo be doing with a Honeywell Pentax sold only in america?" Besides that I think the H3 was pre-Beatles. I do know that at one time they all had Spotmatics, but I am not sure just which version. If he had an European version of an H3 it would have been a S3.
OK just looked it up, the movie was released in 64, so S3 or S3a is most likely.
