If your looking at old cameras a pentax mx is really good, it has consistent metering and everything is adjustable that you want, the metering system is also very simple so its easy to quickly focus and meter something.
For a newer camera look at vivitar they have film SLR’s with the adjustable functions you want. they also come with a 50mm lense the pentax may or may not come with a lense.
You could try the Promaster 2500 PK

It’s very similar to the old Pentax K1000, but it has a plastic instead of metal body. It has a vertical travel shutter instead of horizontal, so you get a faster x-sync.
Standard answers to this usually include the Pentax K1000 and Olympus OM-1. The Pentax is easier to find the correct battery for.
They are not necessarily the “best” SLRs in your price range, but they are considered some of the best to learn on, because they give you exactly the essentials, do their jobs well, and don’t include features that will confuse or distract you.
Another interesting choice you might consider if you can find it is the Fujica ST605. It combines metering with depth of field preview, which makes it just slightly harder to use at first, but really makes you think about composition.
Kodak and Fujifilm is a excellent choice. you can find these type of films at most camera stores like walgreens, circuitcity, bestbuy, etc….good luck
