Pentax Spotmatic SP500 + 55mm F2

Spotmatic SP500 + 55mm F2

Released in 1971 as a budget model of the SPII, the SP500 was named as such due to the max shutter speed of 1/500 although the shutter speed knob can be turned one past 500 and a shutter speed of 1/1000 is attained! With all the features of the SP minus the self-timer (plus the 'extra' shutter speed setting) the SP500 is an attractive entry-level camera for anyone interested in SLR photography from a quality brand.
