Pentax Espio 838
A simple 35mm autofocus film camera with a 38-80mm zoom lens and built-in flash.
The Pentax Espio 838 is a compact 35mm autofocus film camera featuring a 38-80mm zoom lens. Part of the long-running Espio series, it prioritises simplicity with a straightforward interface and automatic film handling. The camera includes a built-in flash with several modes, including a landscape/infinity mode for shooting through glass or capturing distant scenes. It is powered by a single CR2 battery.
When inspecting a used Espio 838, the battery compartment should be checked for corrosion from old leakages. The flash should recycle within a few seconds; a slow recycle time may indicate ageing capacitors. SDS checks the film transport mechanism for consistent spacing and confirms that the lens elements are free from haze or fungus, which can occasionally affect these older plastic-housed optics.
