Chronology of cameras Pentax
This was also known as the IQZoom 60S in north America. It is an entry level camera with little for the operator to do. It is one of the few Espios with a 35 mm lens*, which is slightly 'wider' than the more usual 38 mm, and it uses LR6 batteries which were cheaper than CR 123A. *(Espio AF Zoom, Espio 70)
Unlike most (all?) other Espios it does not have a 'B' setting for low light photography. The flash can be forced on/off, the red eye reduction mode can be selected and the timer can be set, but that is all. The lens has only two focal lengths between 35 mm and 60 mm which are not identified. It was also available with a date back.
