The Pentax SF10 is an advanced autofocus 35mm film SLR from the late 1980s. The included lens is a very sharp SMC Pentax-F 28mm f2.8 compact wide-angle prime. The camera has both a pop-up flash and a hot-shoe for connecting an external flash.

This camera was reviewed in the January-March 1988 issue of Popular Photography (read it here); the writer praised the camera's ease-of-use and sophisticated light metering.  

The SF10 requires a 2CR5 lithium battery (available as an option). 

Condition notes
Both the camera and lens are in very good cosmetic condition (see photos) and are working perfectly. The most noteworthy blemish is a hairline crack in the lens' distance readout window (very subtle, doesn't affect legibility). All shutter speeds and auto exposure modes are working with very good accuracy.
