Spec Notes

Programme runs f/2.8 at 1 s to f/18 at 1/400 s - a DIFFERENT envelope from the original's f/2.8 to f/13.5 at 1/750. Over the auto 110 it adds: single-stroke advance, self-timer, labelled shutter lock, backlight compensation, brighter screen with microprism collar, a slow-speed warning LED, a hinged flash-contact cover, and the dedicated Winder II. NO PRODUCTION-RANGE ROW IS WRITTEN. The introduction year is genuinely unresolved: Western sources say 1982 (tracing largely to one 1982 book), Japanese sources say 1983 (tracing to the cameraquest/submin lineage), and both camps are uncited. Ricoh's archive gives no year, Ricoh's JP chronology omits the Super entirely, and the JCII database - searched, not merely unreachable - holds NO record for it though it does hold one for the original. production Start is NOT NULL, so no row. WEIGHT OMITTED: the manual's 178 g is 'with 24mm f/2.8 lens'; PentaxForums' body-only 164 g is single-source. Different bases, not a reconcilable figure.
