Pentax's mainstream Espio zoom compact — SMC 38-105mm f/4.5-11, infrared AF, bulb and slow-sync, CR123A power.

The Pentax Espio 105G was a 35mm autofocus zoom compact issued around 1999, part of the Espio line Pentax sold in the UK and Europe while the same cameras wore IQZoom badging in North America — this model appearing there as the IQZoom 105G. It sat in the mainstream middle of the Espio range.

The lens is an SMC Pentax 38-105mm power zoom of six elements in five groups, with a maximum aperture running from f/4.5 to f/11 across the range. An active infrared autofocus with focus lock and an infinity mode works from 0.65m, programmed auto exposure covers 1s to 1/360s with a bulb mode, and film speed is DX-coded from ISO 25 to 3200 (non-DX film defaults to ISO 25). The built-in flash offers red-eye reduction plus daylight and slow-shutter sync, and a CR123A cell powers roughly 15 rolls.

It suits film shooters wanting a pocketable do-everything zoom for travel and everyday use, with genuine creative extras — slow-sync and bulb are rare at this price point. The slow tele end of the lens means flash does much of the work indoors, and the finder shows only 83% of the frame, so compositions come back looser than they looked.

The camera is fully battery-dependent: no CR123A, no shutter. Test power-up, zoom extension and retraction, flash charge and the LCD segments. Zoom compacts of this era commonly fail through sticky lens barrels and worn flex cables, so cycle the zoom end to end, and check the film door and its seals close cleanly.
