Terminator 2 was on TV here in the weekend.  In an early scene where Arnie is 
thrown through a window at the mall, there's a guy in the crowd holding a 
Pentax.

May be well known but it was the first time I'd noticed :)

Today I happened to notice a commercial on TV for some Buick car. For
a brief moment it showed someone shooting with an old-school silver
metal film SLR that looked like a Spotmatic.
