Pentax Espio 200 35mm Point & Shoot film camera with 48-200mm zoom lens
Description:
What makes the Espio 200 stand out is simple: 200mm in a point and shoot. Most compact cameras top out at 105 or 140mm, so this one goes considerably further, making it well suited for concerts, sports, travel details, or any situation where you need to pull in a distant subject without carrying a whole camera bag. The 11-element lens construction is notably sophisticated for a compact, and the feature set goes well beyond what you'd expect: spot autofocus, multi-exposure, panorama mode, bulb with flash sync, and wireless remote control that can both zoom and fire the shutter. It is a bigger and heavier camera than most compacts, but that comes with the territory for this kind of reach, and the extra weight actually helps with steadiness at the long end. Worth knowing: the zoom starts at 48mm rather than the usual 38mm, so it is less suited to wide-angle shots. As a dedicated telephoto compact, though, it is very hard to beat.
