Cosina C1

[Darfion]

Just been given a Cosina C1 SLR camera by a friend. It seems qite old but in good condition. Has anybody had one of these and are they any good?I've just stuck some B/W film in and will try it out soon.

Cosina is a name that usually made cameras and lenses with other names. I believe that the Nikon FE and FM cameras are made by Cosina. Also Vivitar and Phoenix. Your Cosina C1 can still be purchased new. They take K-mount lenses. Go to google.com and type the name in the search box for specs and other info. With a good Pentax K lens on it, you should be able to get some good stuff with it.
