The 67 II uses traditional film to record images.
The Pentax 67 II is a traditional single-reflex camera. Since most photographers today are accustomed to digital cameras, they may find using a film camera has a steep learning curve. Fortunately, all cameras share the same fundamental characteristics and can be compared. The 67 II is not designed for amateurs and requires at least an intermediate level of photography to operate effectively.
Core Features
The camera uses 120 or 220 roll film and produces 55mm by 70mm images. It has three exposure modes: aperture-priority, manual and bulb. Its shutter speed ranges between 30 seconds and 1/1000 of a second and it has a dual bayonet lens mount. It is capable of using film with ISO ratings ranging between 6 and 6400. It is powered by 2 3V lithium batteries.
Additional Features
It is capable of multiple exposures on a single image and has a X-sync terminal, along with 4- and 5- pin terminals, for flash syncing. Its LCD display features the battery level, ISO speed, film number, exposure frame and flash status. It is capable of exposure compensation of +/-3 stops in 1/3 stop increments.
Pricing and Availability
As of 2010, the 67 II sells used for $425. Due the age and non-digital format of the camera, you will most likely find it in older or online stores specializing in traditional film cameras. Large electronics retailers will most likely be carrying newer models instead.
