The KR-10 Super was introduced by Ricoh in 1983, as a significant revision to the previous KR-10 (without suffix). The changes include expanding the range of slow shutter speeds from 4 to 16 seconds; moving the shutter release to be concentric with the shutter-speed dial; and changing to an electronic self-timer with a front-facing indicator LED. (It shares some of this DNA with the more stripped-down XR 500 Auto.)
It takes 24x36mm images on 135 film and is fully reliant on the batteries to operate. The "A" setting on the shutter dial switches to aperture-priority autoexposure (where the camera automatically adjusts its shutter speed to suit the aperture and light level). Pressing a button on the front of the camera previews the selected speed alongside the viewfinder image. A wide variety of K mount lenses from different brands will achieve this correctly, in contrast to Ricoh's "Program" exposure models which required Ricoh-specific lenses.
The Sears KSX Super is functionally the same camera although with a slightly different grip.
