The Pentax-DA 50mm f/1.8 Lens is a fast, prime, lightweight lens designed exclusively for Pentax K-Mount digital cameras. This lens features a large maximum aperture of f/1.8 and a round diaphragm to ensure a natural, beautiful bokeh (out of focus) effect, making it ideal for portraits and snapshots. Thanks to its large aperture, the lens allows for faster shutter speeds and offers superb handheld, low-light performance with no blur or noise. The front of the lens is equipped with SP (Super Protect) Coating to repel dust, water and grease from the surface of the lens.
1. High-quality
image description
Thanks to state-of-the-art PENTAX optical
design technology, the image circle of the lens has been optimised for
K-mount interchangeable-lens digital cameras to effectively counter
astigmatism for sharp, clear images.
2. Easy-to-handle
medium-telephoto lens
When mounted on a PENTAX K-mount
interchangeable-lens digital camera body, this medium-telephoto lens
offers a focal length of approximately 76.5mm in the 35mm format. This
gives the user a moderate-telephoto perspective, perfect for portrait
photography with a smooth, beautiful bokeh effect in the background. The
exterior surface is treated with the PENTAX-original SP (Super Protect)
Coating to not only repel dust, water and grease, but also to allow the
easy removal of grease from the surface. This ensures worry-free
shooting in any situation.
3. F1.8 maximum
aperture
Thanks to its large F1.8 maximum aperture, the lens
can easily produce images with a very shallow depth of field. Its round
diaphragm produces a natural, beautiful bokeh effect, while minimising
streaking of point light sources. The large aperture also makes it
possible to use faster shutter speeds under poor lighting conditions to
minimise the risk of camera and subject shake.
4. Compact,
lightweight design
Measuring just 38.5 millimetres in length
and weighing only 122 grams, this lens has a compact, lightweight design
making it easy to carry along on any photography trip.
