SMCP-FA 43mm f/1.9 Limited Edition (PE4319FA)

SMCP-FA

In the 35mm format the ideal definition of a “standard” lens is 43mm, the distance from the

43mm f/1.9

corner to corner on a frame of 35mm film. Featuring an elegant, high-quality look with a

Limited

beautiful satin chrome finish, the 43mm f/1.9 Limited Edition offers true-to-life image

Edition

 

 

reproduction with a focal length that offers a natural perspective with a fine definition of

 

 

depth. High-refraction lens elements minimize spherical aberration, coma flare and

 

 

chromatic aberration to produce sharp, well-defined images even in poorly illuminated areas

 

 

of the picture. This also assures a soft, natural reproduction in out-of-focus areas. Images are

 

 

sharp and contrasty thanks to Pentax’s SMC (Super Multi Coating) process, which results in a

 

 

high retention of light. An incredibly lightweight lens with ultra-thin body design, the well-

 

 

balanced mechanical design of the focus ring and aperture ring assures smooth, comfortable

 

 

operation. Includes a metal lens hood and soft lens pouch. Filter size is 49mm ...............479.95

 

 

SMCP-FA 50mm f/1.4 (PE5014FA)

 

 

A standard lens for Pentax autofocus cameras with a bright f/1.4 aperture, the 50mm lens

 

 

provides an angle of view and perspective similar to the human eye. Its natural perspective of

 

 

subjects makes it ideally suited for everyday use including indoor photography, traveling, and

 

 

hiking. Excellent for low-light handheld photography. Pentax SMC (Super Multi Coating)

SMCP-FA

process provides the highest possible transmission of light. Filter size is 49mm...............209.95

SMCP-FA 77mm f/1.8 Limited Edition (PE7718FA)

SMCP-FA

The SMCP-FA 77mm f/1.8 Limited Edition is a versatile, high resolution medium-telephoto

77mm f/1.8

lens specifically designed with portrait and snapshot applications in mind. As a result, it

Limited Edition

accurately reproduces the tones, colors and texture of the subject’s skin, clothes and

 

 

accessories as well as assuring an excellent rendering of highlight and out of focus areas.

 

The lens also features Pentax’s exclusive FREE (Fixed Rear Element Extension) focusing

 

system to ensure sharp, crisp image reproduction over the entire focusing range. Beautifully

 

finished with an aluminum lens barrel and a dark green indicator for easy lens attachment,

 

the lens is treated with Pentax’s acclaimed SMC (Super-Multi-Coating) for maximum light

 

transmission, sharp definition, and high contrast, while minimizing flare and ghost imaging.

SMCP-FA* 85mm f/1.4 IF (PE8514FA)

 

A 9-blade aperture diaphragm and fantastic multicoating distinguish this portrait lens. Solidly

 

built, this is a confidence inspiring lens, with a large bayonet mounting hood supplied as

SMCP-FA*

standard. It is quite short, but wide construction and weighty feel give the impression of a

“barrel of glass”. Internal floating lens elements give optimal results throughout the focus

85mm

f/1.4 IF

range. FA* lenses make use of a “de-clutching” mechanism to switch between manual and

 

auto-focus. This improves the handling as the focus ring doesn’t revolve when in the AF

 

position. When in the manual focus position the lens has a better feel than most other AF

 

lenses. Includes MH-RBB67 Lens Hood and a soft case. Filter size is 67mm .....................799.95
