This high-magnification zoom lens provides a focal length equivalent to a wide-angle 27.5mm to a telephoto 207mm in 35mm format when attached to a PENTAX digital SLR camera. It can cover a wide range of general-purpose photography, from landscapes and snapshots to portraits and sporting events. The latest optical design combines high magnification with a compact, lightweight design, enhancing ease of use and mobility as an everyday lens.
Moisture-Resistant Construction: The Moisture-Resistant Construction prevents water from entering the lens. When paired with a PENTAX digital SLR camera equipped with a Moisture-Resistant Construction, this lens offers improved durability and reliability in rainy, foggy, and splash-prone conditions.
Smooth Autofocus with an Internal Motor: The lens incorporates a DC motor for autofocus (AF), ensuring smooth autofocus operation. (Note: The non-rotating focus ring prevents rotation during AF, allowing you to hold the lens in the same position as manual focus. *Compatible models: K-5, K-r, K-7, K-x, K-m, K20D, K200D, K100D Super, and K10D (firmware version 1.30 or later). When attached to other cameras, focusing becomes manual focus. The optical system uses one ED (extra-low dispersion) glass element and one hybrid and one glass-molded aspherical (AL) lens element for high image quality. It effectively corrects various aberrations to improve image quality and also contributes to the compact size of the camera body. A circular iris diaphragm produces beautiful bokeh. A circular iris diaphragm suppresses the light rays that appear when photographing point light sources, achieving a more natural and beautiful bokeh. ■ Specifications ■ Angle of view (degrees): 76-11.9 Number of elements (groups/elements): 11/13 Minimum aperture (F): F22-38 Minimum focusing distance (m): 0.4 Filter diameter (mm): 62 Maximum diameter x length (mm): 73 x 76 Mass (weight) (g): 405 □ Manufacturer's warranty period: 1 year
