About this product

Product Information

This Pentax SMCP-FA digital lens provides quality shooting in a lightweight package. The Pentax camera lens weighs 7 oz, making it an easy option for travel and outdoor photography. The Pentax SMCP-FA features autofocus, as well as a manual focus. Photographers can alternate between focus modes with the slide of a switch to make adjusting focus faster. The wide-angle camera lens works with Pentax K mount cameras, though autofocus only works with specific cameras. With a prime focal length of 50 mm, this wide-angle camera lens is ideal for general photography as well. A f/1.4 aperture provides smooth out-of-focus edges for realistic portraits when using this Pentax camera lens. The lens imitates the view angle and perspective of the human eye for a more natural look. Additionally, the Pentax SMCP-FA has multi-layer lens coating to reduce reflections, as well as ultra-violet rays that can distort color. The coating helps preserve contrast and sharpness when shooting in any environment.

Easy to contact by a phone call; they did not hesitate at all to give me a partial refund as the item dropped in price within a few days of the ordered date; it only took a few minutes and there were no hassles. A great seller as the item was shipped promptly, was described in full and they were keen to resolve an issue to my full satisfaction! Well done!!!!!

    AF Convenient But Loud. Decent Image Quality.

    Build Quality - plastic but honestly it looks good with my Pentax K-5. Autofocus - terrifyingly loud. needs some getting used to. Focus ring - loud as well. feels a little heavy like riding a stationary bike. Color aberration - very heavy, very noticeable. Bokeh - it works well but because of the color aberration it looks ugly at times. Overall I think it's a decent value to have at this price. Just don't expect dramatically great images. Try shoot at night, shoot at streets, shoot small things, involve people to get the most out of this lens. Use f1.4 or f1.8 very carefully. Maybe there are better M or A lenses out there, but I think using a single range lens is already a bit of work with all the walking back and forth. I don't want to add dialing focus ring every dang time on top of ...

  • Great quality, excellent value.

    First of all, I must establish that I am a beginner, not a professional or even a dedicated photographer. However, I am a very enthusiastic and meticulous aficionado. I am also a collector, a characteristic that spills over into my photography hobby --I realize now that I am slowly drifting into lens collection. As a collector (mostly of knives, watches, and fountain pens) I have discovered that even good quality production collectibles exhibit variations (each instance is unique), and rarely if ever is a particular kind always reproduced in exactly the same way. I have found out that this is as true of camera lenses as it is of fountain pens, knives or watches. For example, I have three copies of the SMC Takumar 55 mm f/1.8 lens, and each one is slightly or even not so slightly ...

  • Pentax FA 50mm 1.4 lens

    I recently bought this lens and used it extensively on my holiday. Before that I used only 18-55 kit lens so it took me a little time to get used to a prime. It's beautifully built. I just love it's small size and compactness. I use Pentax k-x which is small camera so the whole setup is pretty small which makes it perfect for it's main role, portraiture, because you can get close to people without having the effect of a tank barrel in their face. In some reviews I've read that it doesn't have quick shift focus, but it does, so you can adjust focus manually without switching the lens to manual mode. Picture quality is excellent! Not just sharpness, it also renders colors amazingly! And it doesn't need a lot of light to make beautiful photos. It opens really wide so you can go berserk in ...

  • The 50 mm f1.4 lens is always a good one

    The FA-50mm f/1.4 is a good fast lens, similar to the M-50mmm f/1.4, which is manual. The only advantage I see over the M lens is that it can focus automatically on a digital camera. Optics are about the same. In fact, I would say that the M lens has a probably better IQ than the FA. However, since I always shoot manual, I see no much difference. The difference in price between the M- and the FA- series lenses is to exaggerated. Overall, I am happy with the purchase. It was delivered quickly.

  • A great value for an upgrade to the M or A 50 f/1.4. Sharp and fast.

    The FA 50 f/1.4 is a great little lens. The AF is very fast and accurate. Having owned both the Pentax-M 50 f/1.4 and Penatx-A 50 f/1.4, I really wanted an autofocus version of this excellent lens. One of the complaints I had heard about the FA 50 f/1.4 was that it is soft wide open. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it is actually sharp wide open - sharper than either my copies of the M or A versions. It can even rival my F 50 f/1.7. You will, however, notice a reduction in contrast at f/1.4, including what looks like a glow around high-contrast areas. This doesn't ruin the photos, and the effect can actually be pleasant. The bokeh (out of focus rendering) is very pretty, particularly at large apertures. It reminds me of my FA 77 f/1.8 Limited sometimes. The one complaint I have is ...
