The K1000 is a bit overpriced nowadays. Still, it is
a solid camera,
and it was made until 1997 I think, so you can get
them in very good

High prices? Huh? For a K1000? I've bought two K1000s
in both in superb condition for about $70-$80

1. I didnt get a manual with the camera. I dont
have a credit card, thus ordering one from various
online sources is a giant pain.

He was talking about the Z-5, not the ZX-5. Similar
