Sold [Gone to a new home]. Leather Case for Pentax Spotmatic F Camera (real leather)

[Kodachromeguy]

Here is a leather case for the Pentax Spotmatic F camera and other Spotmatic bodies (not the ES and ES-II). This case is leather, not the ghastly cardboard "pleather" that came in later years. Clean and flexible.

If you want, I can also include hard cases for the 28mm ƒ/3.5, 35mm ƒ/3.5 lens, and 135mm ƒ/3.5 lenses. These cases have been in my closet for decades - time to go to a new home.

Current photographers laugh at never-ready cases, but you can toss your camera and lenses in a backpack or on the floor of your car, and they will be protected.

Free to a USA address, but a minor postage contribution would be welcome.

Thanks everyone!

....quality, and those thoughtful details like the little pocket in the top of the case for a spare battery!

If it fits a Spotmatic it should also fit later Pentax K-series cameras as well.

I did not consider the later K mount bodies. Did they have the tripod mount in the same location? And was the prism hump the same shape?

I have used Pentax SP- and K- series cameras for 25 years.
I just tried a Spotmatic SP case on a Pentax K1000.
It fits perfectly, including tripod screw alignment.

I no longer have a Spotmatic F but I assume its case would fit as well.

The little AP logo is super cool. I’ll take it if no one else wants it. I’m pretty sure my 1958 K would fit. It’s a little smaller than the spotmatic.
