Pentax Efina T

The Pentax Efina T is a high-end APS format compact camera featuring a 3x zoom lens (23-69mm). Distinguishable by its vertical orientation and titanium-coloured finish, it incorporates a passive five-point autofocus system and multiple flash modes. The camera was designed to offer more advanced control within the APS range, including exposure compensation and a variety of programmed scene modes accessible via a rear LCD and control dial. As with all APS cameras, availability of film is the primary consideration for users. When purchasing a used Efina T, the integrity of the rear LCD display and the smoothness of the zoom motor are critical. SDS checks for 'sticky' shutter buttons and ensures the film door latches securely. The titanium-look coating can show scratches easily, so the physical condition of the shell is a good indicator of how the camera has been handled.
