Summary: A cool camera!
Review: I had experiences with a couple of cameras from different brands such as Nikon, Pentax, Canon and Samsung and frankly I had no big complain about my previous ones. I chose Pentax IQ Zoom 105s, because I was perfectlyl satisfied with a Pentax APS camera that I bought long time ago(I decided to buy new one because APS system is not sometimes convenient) and the price was competitive compare to other that has similar function.
Indeed, it didn't disappoint me, the pictures have been very clear, no blur with very vivid color in both inside and outside.
So far I didn't experience a red eye in the night. Zoom and shutter move smoothly, flash works on time and autoshot works beautifully. The drawback is it is little bigger and sturdier than the comparable ones(you can't put it in your shirt pocket) and the viewer window is little dark(But the pictures were perfectly good).
Overall, I think it is a very cool camera and recommend if interested in.

Summary: It was good while it lasted.
Review: I've had my Pentax Zoom 105-R (no date feature) camera for 8 years. It was a good camera while it lasted. The red eye reduction did not work well though. It has a lot of nifty photo options but I rarely used them.

Without warning and for no apparent reason the auto focus went out. The auto focus of a zoom over approximately 12 feet is useless now. The cost to repair it is [expensive] so I'll buy a new one rather than repair this one. ... I have a Canon with interchangeable lenses that is 18 years old and it takes great photos. (The only reason we got another camera to begin with was for the auto focus feature and the compact size of the Pentax.) With the kind of mileage Canon offers, I'm going back to Canon.

Summary: Bummer
Review: My review is not a good one. The camera seemed to work find until in the middle of a birthday party it went crazy and the zoom lens froze. It would cost me $20 less than what I paid seven months ago to fix it. Junk now. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Where's my warranty?????
