Pentax K1000 35mm SLR Camera & Marexar-CX 28mm f/2.8 Lens - Good Condition

This listing is for a fully working Pentax K1000 35mm Single Lens Reflex (SLR) film camera kit, paired with a fast Marexar-CX 28mm f/2.8 wide-angle prime lens. Universally celebrated as the definitive student camera and an enduring favorite for analog enthusiasts, the K1000 is famous for its tank-like build quality, total mechanical reliability, and intuitive layout that gives you complete manual control over your exposure.
This setup comes fitted with a versatile Marexar-CX 28mm f/2.8 wide-angle lens using the native Pentax K mount. The 28mm focal length offers a broad field of view, making it an ideal choice for street photography, architecture, sweeping landscapes, and tight indoor spaces where standard 50mm lenses feel too narrow. Coupled with a bright f/2.8 aperture, it performs admirably in low-light environments while offering nice selective focus.
