Item Description
The SMC Pentax-FA 50mm F1.4 is a film-era 50mm lens with a very long production run. It was introduced in 1991 and not discountinued until 2023. It has an aperture ring and is therefore fully compatible with all Pentax DSLRs as well as film bodies.
It was replaced with the Pentax-D FA* 50mm F1.4 designed specifically for digital cameras with a full frame high-resolution sensor. APS-C shooters have the Pentax-DA* 55mm F1.4 as an alternative.

A standard lens for Pentax autofocus cameras with a bright f/1.4 aperture. The SMCP-FA 50mm f/1.4 is an excellent choice for lowlight handheld photography, and effectively becomes a brilliant short telephoto portrait lens when used upon the *ist series of digital SLR cameras. The Pentax Super Multi Coating process provides the highest possible transmission of light.
If you use the SMCP-FA 50mm f/1.4 with an *ist series digital SLR camera and desire the light-shielding contrast benefits from a lens hood, Pentax's RH-RB49 hood (catalog number 34774, B&H item code "PELH70210AF") provides the most effective shielding. While this hood would cause vignetting with a full-frame 24 x 36mm-type camera(such as a Pentax 35mm SLR), the smaller 23.5 x 15.7mm sensor size of the *ist series makes the RH-RB49 an ideal shielding device. In such applications, a 49mm polarizer can be used at the front of the hood with no darkening of the image corners.
