Michel, I think it needs more documentation to justify it's 3-5X pricing. That might be a $50 early K1000 with a bit of red paint added. The only odd part is the extra flash synch. The lens should also have a plastic, not screw in lens cap. And the 55mm f1.8 was the better lens introduced with the camera. I've never heard of extra SMC coatings being applied. Some kind of soft shutter release button has been added. The seller is from a location with many older retired people. The camera looks nice, but at a lower price please... Regards, Bob S.
