Review of Pentax MZ 60 17/07/2005

User recommends the product

Advantages Lightweight, easy to use
Disadvantages Awkward location of some buttons

Pentax MZ-60 This was my first SLR kit bought in January 2003, which came with a 35-80mm f4/5.6 FA lens. The camera is I belive quite good value for money and an ideal starter SLR, with plenty of features.

Advantages easy to use, light, great for holiday photos.
Disadvantages does not have all options for experienced photographer

I had an old Pentax 'Spotmatic' and I finally made an upgrade. I am very happy with this camera and I highly recommend it. It is very light weight so good to carry around when travelling. It has some great options like being able to switch to different options depending on whether you are taking a night, action, nature, scenery etc photo. It has zoom feature, both in and out and a flash option and this will automatically pop up when it gets too dark.
