andy_willo Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 I have a lens designated as a P/K-A fit - what era of bodies will this fit? I'm thinking of getting a Pentax Program A - any thoughts on the merits or otherwise of this body? Thanks Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_aitken Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Your "A" series lens is ideal for the Program A, however the Super A is a better camera (eg. TTL flash metering). Both these cameras are bargains at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jochen_S Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 Disadvantages of the Program A: No shutterspeed priority, no chance to read display in the dark, to see what it is metering - bad in concert & theater photography, You must look through the finder to see to which shutter speed you set it. And no TTL flash of course. No more service by Pentax. My one broke down the 3rd time now. But it's a nice camera when it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
