Seen on Ebay, this Pentax K1000: red markings on body and lens.
A fake or a commemorative series?
# 160303122400
This is visible:
* The top of the camera has 3 nice black plastic coverings.
* A''Made in Japan''label is on the back of the body.
* On top of the camera, there are engravings of
PENTAX'''',''ASAHI''''''''K1000 ASAHI OPT. CO.''And the Asahi Co.
Emblem. All of these engravings are red.
* The camera has an 55mm f2 RED Pentax SMC.
But it probably does not:
* The camera has a shutter low vibration and highly responsive light meter.
* The red SMC engraving is different from the white engraving because
the red has more coating layers.
Here is not certain:
* The camera has an additional double flash X terminal.
* He bought this camera at a show organized by Asahi Co. Ltd..
