An amazing lens for the price, comparable to other brands at 3-5x the price.
Very sharp, especially wide open. When a lens doesn't let in enough light, there is a lot more to say about how it affects image quality. This lens is great, even in very low light.

| | SMC Pentax-M 50mm F1.7 Review |
I had many over the years. Since it is mass produced and of good quality, it offers a very good quality for price ratio. Easiest to pick up as part of an equipment set or with a camera attached. Only pay up if you want one in pristine condition. If you are looking for a good manual normal that you c...
| | SMC Pentax-F 35-70mm F3.5-4.5 Review |
Buyed used for 40eur. Used with Pentax K-30 APSC.
Overall very good lens. Very compact and usable focal length of 35/70.
In my case above f8 is never sharp. Can be used also as marco lens (over 70mm with minimun distance of 60cm).
The autofocus is fast.
Great value for a money .
| | SMC Pentax 28mm F3.5 Review |
I bought it after reading reviews here and so I want to give back my very personal review.
As older manual lens with a glued lens element experiences may vary. My specimen, that I bought from japan, has a relatively early serial number.
I have used it on K3 II, K3, K7 without any issues.
It became ...
| | HD Pentax-D FA 100mm F2.8 AW Macro Review |
If you don’t read the spec sheet before you see it, you may be surprised at how small and lite this lens is. At roughly 2.5 x 3 inches, it’s roughly the same size as the Pentax 20-40mm Limited lens, which has been commended for its portability. In fact, considering the meager size and weight, all-...
| | SMC/S-M-C/Super-/Auto-/Takumar 55mm F1.8 Review |
Mine is the latest version of Super Takumar.
Pros: Manual focus, metal and glass, without plastic, with diaphragm ring, without electronics, without needing to update it, durable, reliable, beautiful, cheap, eternal.
Cons: Who said cons?
Further:
At f/5.6-f/11: almost perfect flat field, same s...
| | HD Pentax-DA 20-40mm F2.8-4 Limited Review |
This is my new favorite lens--and the one that will remain on my camera for the vast majority of the time. (Most of the pictures that I take fall within this range--which is effectively about 30-60mm on the K3.)
My copy has no softness anywhere: it is sharp from corner to corner across the focal...
| | SMC Pentax 24mm F3.5 Review |
A lot better than I expected, given some of the lukewarm reviews. Centre sharpness good throughout, towards the corners pretty soft wide open, improves when stopped down, even if never spectacularly sharp at the edges. Very satisfactory lens particularly on crop sensors such as M4/3, where the corne...
