Ricoh KR-10 Super 35mm SLR camera + Rikenon 50mm 1:2 lens (serial 79408046)

The Ricoh KR-10 Super is a quality 35mm SLR camera from the 1980s that offers both aperture priority auto-exposure and metered manual exposure modes. The LCD metering in the viewfinder is very informative and the camera offers a wide film speed support from ISO 12 to ISO 3200. 

The included lens is a fast and sharp Rikenon 50mm f2. The camera uses the same lens mount (K-mount) as Pentax cameras like the K1000 and ME and it's an excellent alternative to these better-known cameras. 

Battery info

The KR-10 Super requires two 357 silver oxide or LR44 alkaline batteries for operation (a pair of 357 batteries is available as an add-on).

Condition notes

The camera and included lens are in very good cosmetic condition (see photos). We tested the shutter speeds, exposure accuracy, as well as film plane focus accuracy and they performed superbly in all areas.
