Asahi Pentax K2DMD

The Asahi Pentax K2 DMD is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera using the Pentax K bayonet mount, introduced in the mid-1970s as a professional-oriented variant of the K2. The DMD (Data Motor Drive) designation indicates compatibility with a motor drive and a data back, positioning it above the standard K2 in Pentax's K-series line-up at launch.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the K2 DMD have ranged from £81 to £210, with a median around £150 — wholesale levels achieved in the saleroom rather than dealer retail. Sample size is small, so condition, cosmetic wear and shutter accuracy materially affect what a K2 DMD sells for today in 2026, and clean, fully working bodies sit towards the upper end of that range.
