Pentax 100mm f/2.8 WR D FA smc Macro Lens for Pentax Digital SLR Cameras
Category: pentax lens
The refined aluminum alloy body of this lens features a simple drip-proof construction and a compact, lightweight design without an iris ring. This enables 1:1 (1X) photography at distances up to 13cm from the lens to the subject, reducing ghosting and flare for superior imaging performance that delivers sharp images with high contrast at all shooting distances. A round iris diaphragm is used for rendering natural out-of-focus (bokeh) background effect, making it ideal for use on popular PENTAX weather resistant DSLR bodies.
The Macro lens boasts a full 1:1 image magnification ratio (1X, Life Size) and is not zoomable. The D FA series lens features a "full frame" design, compatible with PENTAX film and digital SLR cameras, but it is optically optimized for digital imaging. The rounded aperture blades improve bokeh at wide apertures, creating a silky smooth background de emphasis.
Furthermore, the PENTAX SP (Super Protect) coating on the front lens element helps repel dust, water, and grease, while minimizing fingerprints. This weather-resistant design makes it a versatile choice for a wide range of shooting environments.
