Asahi Pentax Auto 110 Safari

The Asahi Pentax Auto 110 Safari is a subminiature SLR for the 110 cartridge film format, finished in olive-green livery as a variant within the Auto 110 system that arrived in the late 1970s. It was positioned as a pocketable interchangeable-lens camera at a time when most 110 cameras were fixed-lens compacts.

Sales data for the Safari variant is extremely thin, with a single recorded UK auction hammer result of around £88 — a wholesale saleroom level rather than a retail asking price. With only one data point available in 2026, today's market value is best treated as indicative; condition, completeness of the system (lenses, winder, flash) and presentation will materially affect what a Safari is worth or sells for.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Pentax Auto 110 Safari worth today?

Based on the limited UK auction record available, a Safari has sold for around £88 at hammer, though with only one data point the realistic price range for clean, complete examples is uncertain.

How much does a Pentax Auto 110 Safari sell for compared to the standard Auto 110?

The Safari's olive-green finish typically commands a collector premium over the standard black Auto 110, but the available sales evidence is too sparse to quote a reliable differential.

Is the Pentax Auto 110 Safari still usable?

Mechanically yes, but its value as a user is limited by the scarcity of 110 cartridge film, so most buyers today are collectors rather than shooters.
