Basic Information

Product Features

- High descriptive performance with the latest optical technology
The use of new special low-dispersion (ED) glass and anomalous-low-dispersion glass allows for excellent correction of various aberrations and greatly reduces the occurrence of purple fringing. The use of the high-performance multi-coating "HD Coating," which suppresses the average reflectance in the visible light range to approximately 50% or less compared to the conventional coating, and the FREE (Focusing with Separated Rear Group) system thoroughly suppresses ghosting and flare and produces clear, high-quality images from infinity to close range. The HD Coating and FREE (rear group separation focusing) system thoroughly suppresses ghosting and flare, resulting in clear, high-quality images from infinity to very close range. The lens also allows close-up photography at up to 1x magnification for powerful close-up shots.

- Dustproof and drip-proof construction for outdoor reliability
The lens is the first macro lens to feature AW (All Weather), a dustproof and drip-proof construction that prevents water droplets and dust from entering the lens. The lens is also designed to be used in combination with our digital SLR bodies with similar dustproof and drip-proof construction to provide improved durability and reliability in rain, fog, and splashing water.

- High-quality design that provides excellent operability and a high quality feel
High-quality machined aluminum metal exterior for a high-grade, well-designed appearance. The focusing ring is equipped with the "Quick-shift Focus System," which allows manual focusing without switching to manual focus after focusing in AF mode. The "Quick-Shift Focus System" provides a high quality, smooth operation feel for comfortable manual focusing.

- Compact and lightweight design with excellent mobility
The new lens features a compact and lightweight design that is the same size as the existing "smcPENTAX-D FA MACRO 100mmF2.8 WR" (released in December 2009) and offers excellent mobility while achieving a significant improvement in descriptive performance and enhanced dustproof and drip-proof performance through a renewal of the optical system.

- Others
The working distance of 13cm (when shooting at equal magnification) is effective when shooting subjects that are difficult to get close to, such as insects.
The serial number of the lens starts from 0000001.
An 8-element circular aperture suppresses glare when shooting point light sources and produces a soft bokeh effect from maximum aperture to F5.6.
SP (Super Protect) coating is applied to the front of the lens to resist contamination.
