Pentax Espio 135M

The Pentax Espio 135M is a premium 35mm compact camera from the respected Espio/IQZoom series, featuring a versatile 38-135mm zoom lens. It is housed in a durable aluminium body and offers a range of sophisticated features including multi-point autofocus and multiple flash modes. The lens uses extra-low dispersion glass elements to maintain image quality at the longer end of the zoom range. On used models, the retractable lens barrel is a common point of wear; it should move freely without hesitation. The internal ribbon cables can become fragile with age, so SDS tests all zoom and shutter functions thoroughly. Check that the light seals are intact and that the viewfinder remains bright. The date back version, if present, should be checked for battery leakage.
