The lens offers a Quick-Shift AF system which lets the user simply rotate the focus-ring to focus manually. A built-in focus motor is used to set the focus-distance. It allowed Pentax to optimize the motor precisely for this lens in order to maximize performance.
The lens weighs 90g.
This lens is only available for the Pentax Q mount. It directly attaches and is fully compatible with all Pentax Q mount cameras with Q (4.6X) or smaller sensors.
