- While inheriting the popular SLR design of the original 67, the 67II offers a built-in grip, shutter-release button, wind up lever and shutter dial. The finder lock-up mechanism is also redesigned to keep the finder securely in place even during active shooting sessions.
- The 67II is equipped with a TTL direct metering sensor inside the body to offer advanced TTL auto flash operation for speedy, accurate flash photography.
- With the optional 67II AE pentaprism finder attached, the 67II offers reliable aperture priority AE operation through its advanced six-segment, center-weighted or spot metering modes.
- The effective image area of the 67II measures 55mm by 70mm—more than four times larger than 35mm format. This assures sharper resolution, superior image quality and less grain.
- The 67II incorporates the highly acclaimed extra-bright PENTAX natural-bright matte focusing screen, which is an astonishing 60% brighter than the focusing screens on the original 67. It can be replaced by a choice of three difference focusing screens (optional), or the standard micro-prism matte screen, through the camera's lens mount.
- When making extended time exposures, the P.S. (Power saving) time function can be used instead of the bulb mode to minimize power consumption and save batteries.
- The memory lock button memorizes the proper exposure level on the subject, so the subject is properly exposed even if the image is recomposed after light metering is complete.
- The large LCD data panel and multi-information viewfinder display provides the user with vital operational information.
- The 67II offers an easy-to-use multiple exposure function. Simple operation of the multiple exposure switch, while cocking the wind-up lever, prevents the film from advancing, allowing the desired number of exposures to be made on a single frame.
- Changing between 120 roll film (10 frames) and 220 roll film (21 frames) is as easy as sliding the film pressure plate to the film type in use.
- The 67II's newly-designed film wind-up lever facilitates a smooth, speedy film advance operation.
- The 67II offers a 12-second-delay electronic self-timer to delay shutter release. It also comes equipped with a PCV beep to audibly confirm the operation.
- A user-friendly dial control simplifies metered-manual and bulb operation.
- The 67II is powered by two 3V lithium batteries for extended battery life and outstanding low-temperature performance.
- The TTL pentaprism finder is not recommended for use on the 67II body.
