44 Pentax 17
The Pentax 17 is a big deal because it’s the first new film camera from a major brand in over 20 years. It’s half-frame, so you can stretch your film and get 72 shots from a 36-exposure roll. I like it for its consistent exposure and high hit rate when you just want a reliable, no-fuss film camera.
Pros
- +Half-frame doubles your exposures per roll
- +Consistent exposure system with a high hit rate
- +Simple point-and-shoot experience that’s great for newcomers
Cons
- -Minimal manual controls
- -Seasoned shooters may miss full manual options
