Pentax P series: 1985-1997:
The P 30 was introduced in 1985.
The P-series were simpler cameras than the A-series released two years earlier. P30 had only one program mode, for instance. The dial for time setting was back, though, and with very little resistance, making it easy to find correct values. Size: 137x87,5x50,5. S/n: 4068681.

Identical to the P30n. Produced until 1997. Most brands had some models made by other factories, mostly by Cosina and Chinon. On the list of cameras produced by Cosina, this Pentax turns up, as the only Pentax. (See Lost Brands 00s - Cosina.)
