Where to get a shutter release cable for Pentax Spotmatic F?

Hey there, I was wondering if I can purchase one of the cables from ebay. Are some of those cables they sell compatible with many film cameras or will I need to get a specific cable for my Pentax Spotmatic F camera?

Thanks,


Virtually any standard "cable release" should work if memory serves; I think they're pretty standard. You don't even need to go to eBay; just hit any Wolf or Ritz or your local pro camera store to make sure it fits. Buying off eBay, the shipping costs will be more or as much as the cable release itself.

I want to sell a SMC Pentax-F 1:4.5-5.6 100-300mm lens. What should I Pay for it?

My research show that the lens was issued in 1997-1999. It was reconditioned, and it looks like a very good lens.

Thank you.
Sorry, I want to buy the lens. Of all the things I have lost I miss my mind the most!

I think it was manufactured in 1997-1997. It is a perfect fit, I have tested it. I must make the price.

Thank you for some of those answers.


If it fits your Pentax K-Mount camera, then buy it if you are into shooting field sports or wildlife.

You can expect to pay anywhere between $100 and $150 for it.

    By Joseph Kashi, for the Redoubt Reporter

    In addition to wide-to-normal zooms that I discussed last week, there are several excellent and affordable ultrawide to wide-angle zoom lenses available to users of most dSLR brands.

    Several ultrawide zoom lenses by independent lens makers Tokina, Sigma and Tamron are very good to excellent optically and are relatively affordable. Versions will fit most dSLR models. These are often as good as their name-brand competition and usually less expensive, although none of these lenses are exactly “cheap.”

    All of the lenses listed here are “rectilinear,” that is, they render straight lines as straight lines. Fish-eye lenses are, in my opinion, something of an overused novelty and are not included here.

    Despite their short focal lengths, ultrawide angle zoom lenses tend to be bulky, a result of the complex designs necessary to provide sharp focus and even illumination over a very wide field of view.
