A great little camera!
I like my KM a little better because it has DOF preview but otherwise the K1000 is a great workhorse.
One of the few Pentax cameras I have not tried.
Probably not one you need to try. Your LX is all the K-mount Pentax you’ll ever need!
Great review of one of the great budget cameras of all time. Definitely not luxurious, I agree with your conclusions!
Luxury is nice but one can make fine photos with a K1000 forever with proper care of the body!
I didn’t mean for it to sound elitist. I echo your sentiments exactly. This is a workhorse that was meant to take photos!
I learnt so much from using this camera 🙌🏻
You and lots and lots of others!
Very true
