SMC PENTAX-FA 35mm F/2 AL Lens Summary
Designed for full-frame and crop sensor Pentax DSLR cameras the SMC PENTAX-FA 35mm F/2 AL Lens offers an equivalent focal width of 53.5mm when mounted on crop sensor bodies, perfect for a wide variety of subjects. Despite its low weight of only 195g this lens provides sharp images with high contrast over the entire image and at all focal lengths.
The SMC PENTAX-FA 35mm F/2 AL has an optical system using a hybrid aspherical lens and ghost-free coating, large flower-shaped hood, and other key points for eliminating coma aberration and flare at the edges of the image, which is typically a problem for large aperture wide angle lenses. This Pentax lens also features abundant gradations and deep colour reproduction. The supplied hood includes a window for enabling easy operation of the circular polarising filter.
SMC PENTAX-FA 35mm F/2 AL Lens In More Detail
Sharp, clear image qualityThis high-performance lens is the first 35mm F2 lens for 35mm AF SLR cameras which uses aspherical lenses for correcting various types of aberration and providing a sharp image quality with high contrast from the minimum to the infinity end and high resolution up to the edges even when taken in an open aperture state. A ghost-less coating is also used to enable shooting of clear images with little ghosting or flare even under backlighting and other adverse conditions. Closeup shooting up to 30cm is also possible with this lens.
Operation of PL filters with the hood attachedThis lens uses a flower-shaped hood for effectively cutting incident light, which can adversely affect the image quality. The hood also includes a ‘PL filter operation window’ for enabling operation of the PL filter even when the hood is attached.
