Pentax DA 14mm F2.8 Lens
Lens Description
The Pentax DA 14mm F2.8 is an ultra-wide prime designed for cameras with a APS-C (1.5X) sensor. This bright prime has a 14mm focal-length. It provides the same field of view as a 21mm lens on a Full-Frame camera.
This prime can focus down to 17cm from the imaging plane which gives it a maximum magnification of 0.19X. The lens offers a Quick-Shift AF system which lets the user simply rotate the focus-ring to focus manually. While this lens is capable of AF, it does not have a built-in focus motor. It can only focus with a compatible camera body which features a mechanical AF-coupling.
This lens is only available for Pentax K. It directly attaches and is fully compatible with all Pentax K mount cameras with APS-C (1.5X) sensors.
