As always, JohnS is right on the money with his comments. But, I just had to throw my 2 cents in....

The ME Super is a very easy camera to use AND is an exceptionally good and highly durable camera! You would have a hard time getting a better camera. AND, lenses and accessories are readily available both new and used. I wish I had one in right now to offer you but they go out quick when they come in -- Don, NCI

I have had Pentax cameras since 1964 owning several models eg Spotmatics, SV, K2, ME and an ME Super. I love the Pentax cameras. They feel good, give excellent results and are very reliable. The ME Super would be one of their better models being very easy to use, compact and very easy to change lenses using the K bayonet system. Just bear in mind that they were made in 1980 or so and check that the mirror foams are working as a fairly common problem is that with age they stick and sometimes the shutter will not cock properly. A good camera mechanic can fix this and replace them and check all functions out. Best of luck
