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.
