Pentax smc PENTAX-FA 50mmF1.4 Classic, Single-Focus, Standard Lens for use with K-Mount Digital SLR Cameras ND Filter Included Product information Brand Pentax Focal Length Description 50mm Lens Type Standard Compatible Mountings Pentax K Camera Lens Description 50 mm Product Dimensions 1.5 x 1.92 x 1.92 inches Item Weight 1.89 pounds Item model number 20800 Manufacturer RICOH Country of Origin Vietnam Through intentional fine-tuning of the lens design, this lens has been designed to produce a unique visual effect commonly known as rainbow flare when it captures an image at open aperture and against strong backlight, creating a unique, one-and-only visual expression not available with the latest lenses. By closing the aperture down to F4 or smaller, the photographer can capture sharper, crisper images that are free of not only rainbow flare, but also ordinary flare and ghost images. This lens retains the exterior design of the original smc PENTAX-FA 50mmF1.4, featuring a black matte finish and a matte-black focus ring. It has no green ring — the symbolic design of recent PENTAX digital-specific lenses — to recreate the nostalgic appearance of an old-time lens from the film-format SLR era. When mounted on a PENTAX digital SLR camera body, this lens can be used as a 50mm standard lens in the full-frame format, or 76.5mm medium-telephoto lens in the APS-C format. The large F1.4 open aperture produces images with a very shallow depth of field. Water- and grease-repellent SP (Super Protect) Coating applied to the front surface of the lens makes it easier to wipe off water or stains. The eight-blade diaphragm control mechanism produces a soft, natural bokeh (defocus) effect from open aperture to F2.8, and also minimizes the streaking effect of point light sources. Designed to be fully compatible with older K-mount digital SLR cameras and film-format AF SLR cameras, this lens allows the photographer to retain all camera functions, thanks to the aperture ring installed on the lens body, and the mechanism designed to couple the lens with the camera’s motor-driven, in-body AF system. During shooting, the user is advised to mount a Neutral Density (ND) filter (included as a standard accessory) on the lens. When observing an image through the camera’s optical viewfinder, the user is advised to avoid looking directly at strong light sources.
