Description
Half-size format for capturing a large number of pictures
The PENTAX 17 is a half-size-format camera that employs a left-to-right film advance mechanism. When positioned in the normal way, it captures vertical-format pictures, identical to the familiar images captured by smartphones.
Film advance lever with a nostalgic film camera look
The PENTAX 17 uses a manual film-winding mechanism featuring a film advance lever, to recreate the feel of a traditional film camera. To improve the feel of the film-winding action after each shutter release, this lever is designed for optimal finger hold.
Fixed-focus lens to optimize image quality
The PENTAX 17 features a 25mm F3.5 fixed-focus lens (equivalent to a 37mm lens in the 35mm format). This lens is treated with HD (High Definition) coating highly acclaimed through its application on PENTAX SLR lenses to optimize the image quality of half-size pictures. As the result, the PENTAX 17 delivers sharp, clear images.
Bright optical viewfinder to assure sharp subject image
The PENTAX 17s optical viewfinder features an Albada-type bright frame finder. It also comes with a close-up visual field compensation frame to help you more easily compose close-up images. It is possible to check the zone marks directly through the viewfinder.
