Pentax IQ Zoom

 

The technical stuff:

Camera type: Viewfinder Automatic 

Lens Type: Pentax 38 - 70

Shutter Type: Automatic

 

 

I bought this particular camera for "the challenge" and have now been out with it. At first it seems a little clumsy but you soon grow to like the chunky feel. The handling of the camera is a joy and the function buttons are not only bigger than average but also really well thought out. The flash and mode buttons are either side of the large LCD window and being separate means that you can set long distance mode without having to change the flash setting because this is automatically disabled in distance mode. It is a really nice change to have a compact camera with control buttons and LCD which I can read without having to resort to reading glasses. The start up and zoom are very fast and also unusually quiet. I think I can safely say that this is the best handling compact I have been out with, a real pleasure to use.
