Item Description
I have loved using this classic 28mm f/2.8 autofocus prime lens for many years -- it is so very sharp and possibly my fastest autofocus lens (tied with my DA 40mm). Works well on full frame and crop-sensor. Produces beautiful Pentax colors. I am sad to have to part with it but I have too many other lenses that cover this focal length, and since I recently acquired the FA 31mm limited, this lens has sadly not been used much and deserves to be in the hands of another Pentaxian who can put it to good and regular use. Read the reviews, this is a rarely sold and much desired lens! SMC Pentax-F 28mm F2.8 Reviews - F Prime Lenses - Pentax Lens Reviews & Lens Database

Here are pictures of the lens, along with images I have taken with it. Lens comes with a Marumi 49mm multi-coated lens protector, a third party neoprene lens bag, and front and rear caps. I will also include a Pentax-brand rubber collapsible lens hood.

Asking $175 which includes shipping to North America destinations and I will cover the PayPal fees. I also accept Venmo. Happy shopping!

Bump for a wonderful prime lens! Let's find a good home for this beauty. This lens has over 40 reviews in the PF review database and with an average score a 9.51 out of 10, this ranks up there with many if not most DA Limited lenses. Sharpness is rated 9.6, and in my experience, it is sharp wide open right from f/2.8.

A short while ago I would have taken that lens off your hands, sadly I acquired a 20mm F2.8 for a second system (E-mount) but good luck for the sale!

Thank you. I have such difficulty parting with lenses. I originally planned on selling off my DFA 100 macro WR as well but withdrew the ad, as I realize how special and unique that lens is. F 28mm is light, compact and sharp, and I wish I could hang onto it but my newly acquired FA 31 is just a bit better. Still, in terms of value, the F 28 gives probably 85% of what the FA 31 does, at far less cost, though sacrificing speed and build quality.
