Pentax SV

Out of stock
The Pentax SV is a classic 35mm SLR produced in the early 1960s, featuring the M42 screw mount. It is a fully manual, mechanical camera known for its clean design, lacking a built-in light meter but offering a self-timer and a depth-of-field preview lever. Its mechanical shutter provides speeds from 1 second to 1/1000th, plus Bulb, making it a popular choice for purists and students of film photography.

Is it worth selling my Pentax SV?

If you're not using your Pentax SV regularly, yes — used camera gear depreciates over time, so the longer you wait, the less it's worth. Selling now means you turn idle kit into cash you can put toward your next body, lens or trip.

What condition will my Pentax SV be graded?

We grade every item against five clearly-defined conditions: Like New, Excellent, Good, Well Used or Faulty. Cosmetic wear, functional issues and what's included are all taken into account. Full criteria are on our Conditions guide page.

How long does it take to get paid for my Pentax SV?

Once your Pentax SV arrives and passes inspection (usually within 1–2 working days of receipt), payment is sent straight to your bank account. Most sellers are paid within 24-48 hours of posting their item.

Do you buy a faulty or broken Pentax SV?

Yes — we buy Pentax SV units graded Faulty too, though the price will be lower. Be honest about any issues in your quote: it speeds up inspection and avoids revised offers later.

What accessories should I include with my Pentax SV?

Including the all of original manufactures accessories typically increases what we'll pay for your Pentax SV. If you are missing any of these no worries, just send what you can and we can adjust your quote once your device arrives.
