YOKOHAMA, Japan--Yup, you heard right. In this digital age, there are still manufacturers churning out film-based SLRs. One of them is accessories maker Kenko, which is probably more well-known for its extension tubes and conversion optics for lenses.

The KF-1, KF-2, KF-3 and KF-4 SLRs are aimed at shutterbugs looking to take pictures with 35mm film. The KF-1 and KF-2 are compatible with Nikon F-mount lenses, while the KF-3 accepts Yashica/Contax optics. The KF-4 allows users to fit Pentax K-mount optics on it.

However, a Kenko respresentative told us these models are currently available only in Japan as demand in other countries are very low, especially now with dSLRs getting more affordable.
