Item for Sale
SMC Pentax-DA 70mm F2.4 Limited

Asking Price
240.00 USD

Item Location
Newark, Delaware (United States)

Item Description
Used 70mm Limited. Condition is fair to good by forum definitions. There is some minor finish wear, but that's it. No scratches on the glass. No fungus or haze. Very minor dust. The lens is great, but shortly after I bought it, I got a DA* 50-135 f/2.8, which gives me all the coverage I need at 70mm and similar aperture. I also have an 85 f/1.4.

Aside from the excellent IQ, what is most amazing about this lens is its size and weight. It's tiny, about the same size as my M 50 f/1.7, and noticeably shorter than my DA 50 f/1.8. If you want a small 70mm lens, this is the best out there, to my knowledge.

More photos here.

I've had one inquiry, of the "Is this still available" variety. If it's not marked as sold, or payment pending, it's still available.

I was able to get this lens on my K-01 into a concert venue last night (legitimately—I asked at the door if the camera was too fancy to bring in, and they said it was fine!). Haven't had a chance to process the photos, but I will post some when I do.

Does it vignette much on a full frame K-1 camera?

That I don't know. There used to be a thread somewhere with DA lenses tested on full frame, but I can't find it now.

Here are some photos from Sunday night on my K-01 (not to be confused with K-1):
