AboutThe PENTAX SV, which debuted in 1962, is truly a model that deserves its place in the history of photography. Its appeal is such that it can be considered the completion of the early PENTAX S series, which continued from the PENTAX AP. The linear design that stretches across the front of the body gives the impression of refinement. The graceful curves of the winding lever are part of the beautiful design, and the lines decorating the letters ASAHI PENTAX give it a classical feel. The self-timer, a feature of the SV, is mounted at the base of the rewind crank on the upper left side of the body. The “V” is an acronym for the German word for self-timer, “Voraufwerk,” symbolizing its function. The PENTAX SV has been loved by many photographers for its beauty and innovation backed by its history. Once you experience its charm, you will surely be captivated by this camera.
