Summary: Wonderful camera
Review: I bought this camera from Sears for my honeymoon. I used Kodak Max Versatility Plus film 800 spd and the photos came out absolutely incredible. Every shot was crystal clear and almost professional-like. The only downside (if you can consider this a downside) is that it doesn't have a multi-snapshot mode. I quickly got over that though.

Summary: EXCELLENT POINT AND SHOOT CAMERA..
Review: I bought this camera just in time for my son's birthday party. I don't even have to see the manual to use this camera.. it's just a breeze too operate. The camera felt just right on my hand, lightweight and just at the right size (compared with my previous Pentax IQ-200 which is too bulky and heavy looking).
I used the Kodak 400 spd and the result came out absolutely beautiful.. the color is vibrant and not blurry at all. No more red eyed and dark picture. Definetely worth the money spend!! I will recommended this camera to everyone..
Thanks Pentax..

Summary: Great pictures only drawback is the viewfinder
Review: I got this camera for Christmas and recently had my first roll of pictures of developed. The pictures came out very clear and the color was exceptional. Even the pictures taken with the 170 telephoto lens came out beautifully. The overall feel of the camera is nice. It is very lightweight and can easily fit in a purse. I would have given this camera a rating of 5 stars if it wasn't for the positioning of the viewfinder. I find it very hard to look out of. Uncomfortable almost. I do wear glasses and that might be the problem but when I was shopping for cameras I did not find this problem with the Olympus but I went the Pentax due to the lens cover and the fact that the flash did not pop up. Overall I would highly recommend this camera. Especially to those who do not wear glasses.

Summary: Compact Camera on Viagra
Review: I recently purchased the Pentax IQ Zoom 170 SL for a trip to London. I was looking for a 35 mm with the largest zoom and the smallest size. This camera meets all expectations. I took 9 rolls of film on my trip and every shot came out crystal clear. This includes pictures taken inside & outside, daytime and nightime, with no zoom and at full zoom. The full zoom even came out clear in dark lighting conditions. The zoom is amazing, and is quite comical when it is at its full length.... just be careful to not turn to quickly... you might hit somebody in the head. One quick comment. I purchased mine through amazon and got a good deal... however you should note that the price does not include a battery or a case.

Summary: Did I get the same camera?
Review: I was recently forced to shop for a new camera when my Vivitar PZ8000 broke down after years of clear, quality pictures. My main goal was to find a camera that could produce consistently clear pictures. Plus, it has to be simple. I don't like to spend a lot of time analyzing the light, etc. I want to be able to grab the camera, turn it on, and quickly take a picture. So when I saw the other reviews for the Pentax IQZoom 170SL, I thought I had found the camera I was looking for. Everyone raved about the clarity, the zoom and the simplicity of this camera. It seemed perfect, so I bought it. Now I'm left wondering if I got the same camera as the other reviewers. I've taken 5 or 6 rolls of film with very mixed results. Maybe 25% of the pictures are beautifully clear, as I had hoped and expected. Landscapes turned out better than the rest. About 50% of the pictures were average and basically acceptable. But then about 25% of the pictures were terrible, especially those with people as the main focus. I took an entire roll of film at my brother's wedding, and all but a handfull are so blurred that the people are almost unrecognizable. And I don't just mean that the people were blurring, the entire photo was bad. There are a lot of flash options, etc. on the camera, and maybe I just haven't figured out when to use the features. And I'll be the first to admit that I'm not especially careful at setting everything up. But I've never had this problem with other cameras. Unfortunately, I waited too long to return the camera because I kept hoping that the pictures would improve. I'm planning on selling it. This camera left me so disappointed that I don't trust it to capture the memories of my vacations, etc.

Review: Pentax point and shoots are extremely reliable cameras, and this one has more zoom than many SLR zoom kits come with! They are also very durable. While playing with one at the camera store that I work at, I dropped it on my foot! I picked it up, dusted it off, and still worked just fine. Just be careful not to knock into things when you have your zoom extended! One word of warning: with so much zoom you have to be careful not to outshoot your flash. Zoom in to your heart's delight outdoors in bright sunlight but under low light keep in mind that your flash is only good for up to about 10 feet. You should be fine shooting with a nice 400 speed film in most lighting situations, I recommend Fuji.
