The Pentax MX was a 35mm single lens reflex camera produced by Pentax of Japan between 1976 and 1985. It was Pentax's flagship professional SLR until the introduction of the LX. The MX was solidly built and featured a fully mechanical construction, including a mechanical shutter. Only the light metering system was dependent on batteries. The MX is all manual: it does not feature auto focus or auto exposure modes.
A number of accessories, including focusing screens, backs, a motorized winder (the Winder MX) and motor drive (the Motor Drive MX) were produced. Internally, the MX is essentially a smaller, lighter version of the Pentax KX and otherwise bears no real resemblance to the rest of the Pentax M-Series. However, the MX was designed as the mechanical twin sister of the remarkably successful entry-level Pentax Me-Super. Like all post-42mm screw mount Pentax cameras, the MX accepts all K-mount lenses.
Due to its complete lack of automatic functions, but excellent array of manual controls, the MX is often selected as a camera for photography students to practice their technique. The depth-of-field preview function renders the MX superior in this one respect to the earlier and cheaper K1000.
