Basic Information

Product Features

- Adoption of HD Coating for enhanced descriptive performance
The lens coating of the "smc PENTAX-FA50mmF1.4", which has been well-received over the years, has been completely revised to adopt the latest high-performance multi-coating "HD Coating". Compared to the conventional multi-coating, the HD Coating has less reflection and higher transmittance, effectively suppressing ghosting and flare under severe shooting conditions such as backlighting, and providing clear images with high contrast.
(*"HD" stands for High Definition)

- New design to match the latest models
While maintaining the size of the base "smc PENTAX-FA50mmF1.4," the design has been completely redesigned. Designed to match the latest DA and DFA lenses, the new design enhances matching with K-series digital SLR cameras.

- When mounted on our digital SLR cameras, the lens provides a standard angle of view of 50mm on a full-size camera and a medium telephoto angle of view equivalent to 76.5mm on a 35mm format on an APS-C size camera. As a standard lens that provides an angle of view close to the human field of view at full size, this lens is ideal for a variety of subjects, including snaps, landscapes, and portraits.

- A large f/1.4 maximum aperture allows for photographic expression that takes advantage of a very shallow depth of field.

- SP (Super Protect) coating on the front of the lens is highly effective in repelling water and oil and is easy to wipe clean.

- An 8-element circular aperture suppresses glow when shooting point light sources and produces a soft bokeh effect from maximum aperture to F2.8.

- The lens is designed to support aperture setting on the lens side and AF by the in-body motor, so that each function can be used when attached to older K-mount digital SLR cameras, AF film SLR cameras, and other cameras.
