PENTAX HD D FA ★ 70-200 mmF2,8ED DC AW telezoomlens voor digitale spiegelreflexcamera's moderne optische technologie hoge resolutie beelden vrij van strooilicht en spookbeelden weerbestendig

I have a large collection of Pentax and Takumar lenses. Pentax cameras and lenses have gotten very heavy lately which discourages me from taking the camera with me, thus I have ended up using my iPhone to get chance shots more often than I'd prefer. I like to use manual focus and the newer lenses have very stiff focus which is also geared for fast autofocus rather than accurate and pleasing manual focus use. This lens is a great antidote to these modern Pentax design issues. The size and weight is fantastic, it's sharp, it doesn't vignette much and it has great contrast with the modern coatings. I am carrying my camera more often and getting great images. I also really like the old classic 35mm f3.5 Takumar but I feel this is a modern version of that lens in terms of usage and quality. Highly recommended. Now if Pentax would just update the K1 with a plastic body to reduce the weight...

Possesseur de l'excellent modèle SMC sorti en 1999 , la version HD de ce 35mm f/2.0 affiche encore un meilleur contraste sur mon K-1 bien que globalement le piqué soit similaire sur les 2 exemplaires. De par sa nouvelle finition cosmétique, la bague de mise au point est plus agréable au toucher. Enfin, l'agréable surprise est venue du temps de réponse de l'autofocus qui s'avère vraiment, vraiment plus rapide bien que sa technologie soit encore de type "screw-drive".

Excellent Pentax glass. The sharpest glass I own from Pentax. The colors are truthful and vivid. If "straight out of camera", no post processing, is your thing, look no further.

I got this lens to go with a new K-1 body and it has not disappointed! It is weather sealed and I would highly recommend as a first lens on a full frame camera like the K-1. I've used Pentax manual lenses since the 70's and this lens performs even better than those, at least in terms of color and contrast, something that was expected based on the new coatings developed since the Super-multi-coating SMC days. I loved the SMC coatings and this is even better.In terms of resolution, it is very sharp, and at all focal lengths and matches or exceeds the 36 megapixel sensor on the K-1. Very well built, no wobbles or excessive slack or looseness in the rings etc. Impressive! It is definitely way better quality in every way than plastic kit lenses on competing brands. I would say it is the 99% equivalent of a Canon standard L zoom, but just a little smaller, since it is a variable aperture lens. F3.5 to 5.6 compared to a constant F4, but then it is 10-20% lighter, which has its advantages too.The DC motor is almost silent, much more than similar arrangements in older non ring drive lenses with competitors, and fast and decisive in focus on a K-1. The motor makes much less sound than most lens based image stabilizers, to give you an idea of how quiet.All in all, this lens plus the K-1 is a really sweet deal for the price for what it delivers.
