If I recall correctly a Spotmatic case will fit, I think they're the same case!
Check out ebay, this is on at the moment.

Why would anybody want to buy one?

As far as I'm aware, the photography course that runs at Bradford Uni is a FULL course. Starting with film in the first year and moving on in subsequent years.
That's why the manual capable cameras are so popular.
Watch E-bay at the start of the university year and see how many MES, K1000 and MX cameras go at higher than normal prices. They're the tool to have it seems.

Around here the uni students using film spend a fortune on ME Supers, Mxs P30s, in fact any Pentax body with aperture and shutter control.
Makes it hard to get good used kit at reasonable prices!
Surely brand is insignificant when using film or digital. Some Universities may have a stock of canon lenses, others may hold Pentax, so long as results can be gained from the camera used it doesn't matter who makes the body.

Welcome to the forum.
The K-x promises to be a superb camera, I've played with a K-m, they're the same size, and found it easy to get to grips with.
Just don't go for the Canon. The Rebel models are US versions of the EOS1000 (rock bottom and nasty) and EOS450(out of date model)as far as I can tell and as such may not carry a UK warranty.

Just buy a body, your lenses will do just fine...
...until you start wanting more...
Seriously, I've used the 28-80 on my K200d with very good results.

I was amazed at the fact somebody had taken a shot of someone using a 67!
