HD PENTAX-FA 43mm f/1.9 Limited Lens Black summary
In purely mathematical terms, the standard lens of the series with its focal length of 43 mm corresponds exactly to the diagonal of the image sensor of a 35 mm full-frame camera, and thus to the natural angle of vision of the human eye.
The smoothness and richness of tonal gradation give a sense of three-dimensionality. An impressive effect that many photographers particularly appreciate about the PENTAX system.
The high light intensity in combination with the bright and large viewfinder of a PENTAX SLR camera offers a special experience when taking pictures.
- Normal-length 43mm lens is designed for full-frame Pentax K-mount cameras, however can also be used with APS-C models where it will provide a 64.5mm equivalent focal length.
- Bright f/1.9 maximum aperture benefits working in low-light conditions and also affords greater control over depth of field for working with selective focus techniques.
- PENTAX smc multi-layer coating helps to greatly reduce surface reflections, flare, and ghosting for improved contrast and color neutrality when working in strong lighting conditions.
- Slim, pancake form factor results in a sleek and extremely portable design well-suited for everyday shooting.
- Eight-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth bokeh quality.
