When mounted on a 35mm full-frame PENTAX K-series digital SLR camera, it lets you enjoy eye-catching fish-eye photography with a nearly circular image circle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFish-eye zoom with an angle of view between 180°and 100°\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn angle of view of 180° (at focal length of 10 mm) opens up a world far beyond the human senses. With this lens, you can enjoy distinctive landscapes or starry sky pictures allowing you to take advantage of the image distortion that is unique to a fisheye lens. Further expression can also be achieved by approaching the subject and taking advantage of the distortion effect. Additionally the fish-eye effect can be control using the zoom, when the telephoto end turns to be a super wide-angle lens.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompact and lightweight design lens optimized for PENTAX APS-C format\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe lens is exclusively designed for PENTAX APS-C format, resulting in a compact and lightweight design fish-eye lens of a mere 323g.

The lens is designed to match the latest PENTAX DSLR cameras which is in line with the latest DA and D FA lens.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUses the latest multi coating technology, “HD coating”, which reduces ghost and flare.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis lens delivers a high-resolution, high-contrast image that is sharp and clear even at the edges. Even under harsh conditions with a strong light source, HD Coating effectively reduces ghost and flare to minimum, compared to conventional multi-layer coatings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePENTAX’s original “SP coating” for easy maintenance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn many of the PENTAX lenses, the front surface of the first optical element is treated with SP Coating, a high-strength fluorine coating which effectively protects the lens. Highly repellent to water and grease, it not only prevents adhesion of dust, water drops and oils, but also makes it easy to wipe away foreign objects from the lens surface.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eED glass and inner focusing for a high-performance optical system\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExtra-low Dispersion (ED) glass is used for providing superior correction for chromatic aberration which reduces imaging performance. This enables high-quality imaging performance without blurring of colors at the edges. Combined with the inner focus system, the lens provides a high image quality in a compact, lightweight design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick-Shift Focus System for seamless switching from auto focus (AF) to manual focus (MF)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen in-focus using AF, turning the focus ring immediately switches to manual focus. This eliminates the need for switching from AF to MF allowing for smooth focusing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHD Coating to enhance imaging power\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter a thorough review of lens coatings, PENTAX applied HD Coating* — PENTAX’s latest multi-layer coating — to the lens. Compared to conventional multi-layer coatings, this high-performance, multi-layer coating reduces average reflectance in the visible light range by more than 50 percent and improves light transmittance, to minimize the adverse effects of flare and ghost images even in demanding lighting conditions such as backlighting. This zoom lens also incorporates an Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass element to effectively compensate for chromatic aberration for extra-clear, high-contrast images.\u003cbr\u003e* HD is the abbreviation of High Definition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHD Coating to enhance imaging power\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter a thorough review of lens coatings, PENTAX applied HD Coating* — PENTAX’s latest multi-layer coating — to the lens.
