Kalimar KX 5000 No. 2
I got home today and there was a package waiting by my door. It was a Kalimar KX 5000 camera I bought from KEH Camera and it's like new! Actually, I think it is new. It's the complete kit except for the lens. I think it was only opened, the lens was removed and it was put back in the plastic bag. The kit featured the original box, a leather case, new batteries, a body cap and a neck strap, plus the camera body. It is somewhat of a clone of the Minolta X-300s/X-370n. I think the styling looks better than the Minoltas.
Originally, it came with the lens pictured, but this is the lens from my other KX 5000, just for the beauty shot.
And when I unboxed it, I got to studying it and learned something about the camera I hadn't known. I also have a Kalimar KX 7000 and wondered what the difference was between the KX 5000 and the KX 7000. Now I know. The KX 5000 is all manual, while the KX 7000 has an automatic aperture-preferred setting in addition to full manual. I had never used the automatic setting on my original KX 5000, of course if I had tried to, I would have found it that it didn't have one. 99.9% of the time, I use my cameras on manual. Especially all my Minolta SLRs and the Chinese-made clones.
