HD Pentax-D FA 24-70mm F2.8 Review Posted

The workhorse of the Pentax full frame lineup

By bdery in Hands-On Tests on Dec 12, 2016

Continuing our series of tests of the three fast-aperture, professional lenses for Pentax full frame, we are proud to present our review of the HD Pentax-D FA 24-70mm F2.8 ED SDM WR.

24-70mmThis lens is the true workhorse of the Pentax full frame lens lineup.  It delivers versatility through weather sealing, a fast aperture rating, and a zoom range covering some of the most common focal lengths in everyday shooting.  Alongside the D FA* 70-200mm F2.8 and D FA 15-30mm, the 24-70mm is a likely choice for photographers looking for the convenience of a zoom and a high level of performance. Read our review to find out how this new lens fared in our tests!
