The HD Pentax-D FA* 85mm F1.4 SDM AW ultra high-performance portrait lens has finally been officially announced and is now in stock at a launch price of $1896.95.

By ordering from our partner retailers you'll also support the forum, which entitles you to a free one-year forum account upgrade.

Given the precedent for image quality set by the D FA* 50mm F1.4, our expectations for this new 85mm are very high. It seems that Pentax is stopping at nothing to deliver optical perfection—amid an ever more competitive camera market. Please stay tuned for our in-depth review of the lens. If you end up getting one, you may also post a review in the lens database.

Learn more about this lens in the CP+ product update video shared by the Pentax development team just a few weeks ago.
