HD PENTAX-D FA 21mm F2.4ED Limited DC WR
Exclusive quality of the Limited series with optimized image reproduction and fine texture description now also in the ultra-wide-angle range. True to the design concept of the Limited series, this Lens has been developed to achieve a distinctive visual expression. In addition to constant refinement based on measurement results, the development process was also constantly accompanied by a large number of photo shoots in practice in order to develop an optimum image impression. In addition to the outstanding technical values, it is the high-quality manufacturing materials that make the use of this lens a special experience.
Following the tradition of the Limited Edition, this series is now being expanded with an ultra-wide-angle Lens. The HD PENTAX-D FA 21mm F2.4ED Limited DC WR is the first Lens in this series to be adapted to the special characteristics of 35mm full-frame digital SLR cameras, offering new perspectives of visual expression with its wide shooting angle. It captures the prevailing atmosphere and a three-dimensional image effect that gives the photographer a special pleasure and can be used for landscape photography as well as for snapshots.
It was equally important to deliver clear and high-resolution images of subjects at a distance, such as landscapes, even in the peripheral areas, but at the same time to achieve a unique image reproduction at close range. When the aperture is open, it creates a slight bokeh effect (blurring) in the background while keeping the main subject in focus. This allows subjects in front of a blurred background to be emphasized with the exaggerated perspective typical of ultra-wide-angle lenses. By selecting the aperture, different visual impressions can be created depending on the subject. In addition, the eight-blade diaphragm ensures that there is no scattering from point light sources and that light rays are reproduced naturally.
The lens barrel, the built-in lens hood and the cap are made of high-quality aluminum for an attractive appearance. The engraving of a depth-of-field scale, as well as a special, clearly tactile insertion mark for changing the lens without having to look or for use in the dark, round off the elaborate and very high-quality construction.
The DC autofocus motor (Direct Current Motor) is located in the Lens and thus ensures direct, smooth, fast and precise distance adjustment.
With the QSF/A (Quick-Shift Focus System) for immediate switching to manual focus mode without the need to switch focus modes after the subject has been captured in focus by the camera's autofocus system, the photographer remains in constant control and can refocus in case of doubt.
The optical construction of the Lens consists of four ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass optical elements that minimize chromatic aberrations and prevent color bleeding, not only in the main focus area but also in the surrounding defocused areas.
An important part of the optical construction is the HD coating. The lens elements of this Lens are coated with the multi-layer HD (High Definition) coating developed by PENTAX. Compared to conventional coatings, it offers significantly higher light transmission with low reflection (up to 50 % compared to conventional coatings). This enables maximum contrast and sharpness without stray light and ghosting, even under difficult conditions such as backlighting. This is made possible by an exclusive PENTAX special manufacturing process, in which a high-density coating is applied with high precision at the nanometer level.
which also has extremely high hardness for superior durability.
This Lens is equipped with electromagnetic aperture control*, which ensures high-precision exposure control in combination with compatible digital SLR cameras. The high-precision exposure control is a great advantage, especially for video recordings and strong fluctuations in brightness - e.g. on a stage with rapidly changing light conditions or in the forest with the rapid change from light to shadow when the sun is shining.
In every respect, this Lens is an exceptional tool that will give you a great deal of pleasure and inspiration when taking pictures and thus ignite a special passion.
*The lens has the KAF4 mount and electronic aperture control is possible with the corresponding camera bodies: PENTAX K-3 Mark III, PENTAX K-3 II, PENTAX K-3, PENTAX KP, PENTAX K-70, PENTAX K-50, PENTAX K-S2, PENTAX K-S1, PENTAX K-1 Mark II and PENTAX K-1.
