Pentax Auto 110 with 24mm f/2.8 Lens

Pentax Auto 110 24mm f/2.8 - Good Condition | The World’s Smallest SLR Interchangeable Lens System

Introductory Paragraph The Pentax Auto 110 is the definitive choice for the enthusiast who values high-precision engineering in its most miniature form. As the only ultra-miniature SLR system ever produced with interchangeable lenses, it is celebrated for bringing professional-level through-the-lens (TTL) viewing to the 110 film format. This unit is paired with the 24mm f/2.8 Pentax-110 lens (S/N: 2071491), which provides a natural "normal" perspective equivalent to 50mm on a full-frame camera. Because it features a fully automatic programmed exposure system and a bright split-image rangefinder, it serves as an incredibly capable tool for photographers who want the tactile experience of an SLR in a body that fits in a shirt pocket. Whether you are a collector of miniature marvels or a film enthusiast looking to experiment with the 110 format, this Pentax provides the optical brilliance and mechanical novelty that made it a cult classic.

Specialist Note "The Auto 110 is a marvel of Japanese miniaturization. What I love about this model is that Pentax didn't treat it like a toy—it’s a rugged, honest piece of engineering with a real glass lens and a true SLR mechanism. It’s the ultimate conversation starter for any photographer. While 110 film is often associated with grainy snapshots, the optics on these lenses are surprisingly high-quality, delivering sharp images with a distinct vintage character. For anyone looking for a unique, pocket-sized piece of photographic history, this Pentax is a top-tier choice."
