Pentax SP-500 + revuenon special 135mm f2.8

Description

The Pentax SP-500 has a through-the-lens light meter. The camera is entirely mechanical apart from the light meter, which was powered by a 1,35volt PX400 mercury cell. A small switch on the left side of the lens housing was pushed up to stop down the lens and activate the meter. The exposure controls would then be adjusted to center a needle on the right edge of the viewfinder. The body took lenses with a 42mm Practica / Pentax screw mount , giving a huge range of alternatives. the SP500 having a top speed of 1/500 s. in combination with the Revuenon special 135mm f2.8 you get a really awesome set with a lot of focal length.
