The Pentax Spotmatic, paired with the 55mm f/1.8 lens, is an iconic 35mm SLR camera that revolutionized photography in the 1960s. It was one of the first to offer through-the-lens (TTL) metering, dramatically simplifying exposure for photographers. The Spotmatic has a solid build and a fully mechanical operation, making it a reliable and enduring camera. The 55mm f/1.8 lens is celebrated for its sharpness and beautiful bokeh, suitable for a variety of photography styles, from portraits to landscapes. A notable fun fact is that the Spotmatic was so popular that it remained in production for over a decade, with various improvements introduced over the years.
