We have grouped these three cameras together as they were all very similar in specifications, the same price, and with time having elapsed it depends on what versions we have in stock to be able to supply.

You are welcome to stipulate the version you require but otherwise we'll supply whichever model we have in stock at the time.

All three are fully manual cameras. The P30 offered a program mode with KA lenses, plus manual but no remote release. The black P30N then added the option of aperture priority auto exposure as well. The P30T is like a P30N but in a titanium colour finish. It also has a diagonal focus aid (especially useful if your image lacks vertical items to focus on).

The P30N and P30T also have a release that is BOTH mechanical AND Electronic (With Cable Switch A)

Please note, all second hand cameras are zero-rated for VAT.
