HD PENTAX-DA 35mm f/2.8 Macro Limited Lens in more detail
High-grade HD coating for exceptional image rendition
HD coating is a high-grade multi-layer lens coating that assures higher light transmittance and lower reflectance than conventional multi-layer coatings. As a result they produce sharp, clear images free of flare and ghost images, even under such adverse lighting conditions as backlight.
Round-shaped diaphragm for beautiful out of focus areas
All lenses feature a completely round-shaped diaphragm to optimise the performance of their distinctive optics. This diaphragm produces a natural, beautiful bokeh (out-of-focus) effect, while minimising the streaking effect of point light sources.
Premium quality of the Limited Lens-series
While inheriting the design concept of the Limited Lens series, these lenses were designed by combining a series of mechanical and numerical evaluations with human assessment of test-shooting samples to assure the ultimate in image reproduction. Their optical design has been optimised for digital photography to deliver sharp, clear images with outstanding contrast, even at the maximum aperture. In addition, their lens barrel, hood and cap are all made of a high-grade aluminium material, hand-machined for perfect proportions and beautiful texture.
