Description
The Vivitar V3000 and Vivitar V3000s are fully manual 35mm film SLR cameras marketed by Vivitar ca 1990. The two cameras are identical except that the V3000s includes a mechanical self-timer. The cameras came in two color schemes, either all-black or two-tone black and silver. The cameras use the Pentax K-mount lenses. The camera body is plastic and includes a hot-shoe flash socket, internal light meter (activated by pushing the shutter release button half-way), manual film advance, a screw thread for remote shutter release cord. It has a flash sync terminal but no automatic exposure capability. The V3000s was manufactured in China by Cosina for distribution by Vivitar. A variant of this Cosina-made camera was also sold as the Yashica FX-3.
