No compromise in either imaging or design!
The demanding DA Limited Series

Whereas the Pentax-DA ★ (DA Star) series was created thoroughly to depict the highest imaging performance, the HD PENTAX-DA Limited series is a group of lenses created with a commitment to imaging performance, compact size, and feel as a lens. The series uses the next-generation multi-coating known as “HD Coating” to reduce reflectance in the visible light spectrum by more than 50% compared to conventional multi-coatings. The resulting imaging is characterized by clarity and high contrast. In addition, with honest imaging emphasizing the suppression of astigmatisms, another appealing feature of these lenses is three-dimensional depiction of the subject and their soft and smooth bokeh blurring effects. On the physical design side, lens barrels, lens hoods, and caps utilize material shaving of metal, and making the best use of the high quality of those materials, careful attention is paid to all aspects of the shape of the other components. A strong effort is also made to reduce lens size so these are lenses that can be elegantly used even in situations where wielding a huge, heavy lens would be awkward.

HD PENTAX-DA 20-40mmF2.8-4ED Limited DC WR

Specifications

This is an HD PENTAX-DA Limited Series standard zoom lens which covers the focal lengths of three lenses (21 mm, 35 mm, and 40 mm). The zoom ring reminds us, modeling focus ring of the lens TAKUMAR design of the past to rotation torque has just the right amount of resistance to give a sure response. As the first zoom lens of the Limited Series, careful attention was given to both appearance and operational feel, with quiet and smooth operation realized through the use of a DC motor. A removable lens hood is provided, and the lens cap can be attached with the lens hood mounted. Weather-resistant specifications is the first completes of the Limited series.

Sample Images

Centered on a perspective close to that of the naked eye, this standard zoom lens covers a range from wide angle to medium telephoto. It can handle diverse scenes including portraits as well as landscapes. Chromatic aberrations have been corrected through the use of extra-low dispersion (ED) glass. Sharp imaging is achieved over the entire zoom range.

Producing a sharp impression even at a wide-open aperture, with this lens it feels less like you are using a zoom lens and more like you are using a fixed focal length lens at each focal length position. The image quality is, of course, excellent, but in use you will also enjoy the form of the operating parts and the feel of the torque.
