Small, light, automatic and stylish. One of the easiest SLR cameras to use – perfect for any occasion.

The Pentax ME is the easiest to use member of the Pentax ‘M’ series of SLRs (which also includes the ME-Super, MX). All three share the same lightweight and ultra-compact chassis, showcasing great build quality and lovely to use controls.

The ME has automatic (aperture-priority) exposure, so is quick and easy to shoot with.

You choose the lens aperture (which gives you control of depth-of-field) and the camera automatically sets the correct shutter speed.

The clear LED display lets you know the shutter speed warns you of over / under exposure if needed.

Pentax put some thought into making film loading easy too – when loading film the camera has a special spool with many slots so it is faster more reliable to load film correctly. There is also a little window on the back of the camera with a striped flag that moves when you wind film on to confirm that film is indeed loaded correctly. Simple, yet very useful.

The viewfinder is a joy to use – big, clear and bright.

Available with either a silver or black body.

Pentax also released a separate flash to go with the ME: the AF200S (we generally have these in stock). This offers auto flash exposure and is a great accessory to have.
