PERSONAL NOTES

The Ricoh KR-5 Super strangely ressemble a Pentax. In fact, it looks so much like a Pentax, that is was probably manufactured in the same plant. All Ricoh "KR" series of camera shares the Pentax "K" mount.

I have to admin that this Ricoh is pretty good. It has access to the same excellent lenses, its finder is excellent, it feels exactly like a good Pentax, but for less money. What can you ask more of ?

CONCLUSION

For the price, the Ricoh KR-5 Super is a very nice entry level SLR. Worths every penny.
