I have a PC35AF sitting here in front of me. The lens says 'PENTAX LENS f=35mm 1:2.8 0.7m-oo'
There are two manual settings - one for ASA setting and one for backlight (+1.5). Also has a self-timer, built in flash and is powered by 2 AAA batteries. I picked mine up on ebay (with a defunct winder) for approx CA$20. They seem to show up fairly often. A nice little camera with a good solid feel to it. Haven't used it much but the photos I have taken with it came out ok. Fred. URL: http://www.ist.uwaterloo.ca/~fwwidall > ----- Original Message ----- > From: J. C.
