The Pentax 17 camera is on Time’s Best Inventions list for 2025

By admin | Published: February 16, 2026



The Pentax 17 camera earned a place on the 2025 Time’s Best Inventions list for reviving film with a clever modern twist. Judges pointed out its role in bringing analog photography back into mainstream conversation, offering a tactile, creative, and refreshingly slow alternative to digital overload. In 2025, film stays relevant.

The Pentax 17 camera is now in stock at B&H, Amazon, Erhardt, Koch, and WEX.

You can now buy wooden 1:1 replicas of the Pentax 17 and Pentax Spotmatic SP film cameras

Thanks, J.
