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 35mmF2.8 Macro Limited

Specifications

With a minimum shooting distance of 0.139 m from the imaging surface (working distance of approximately 3 cm from front of lens), this macro lens can shoot close-ups at the actual size of the subject. The FREE (fixed rear element extension) focusing system is used to correct various types of aberrations at all shooting distances from short range to infinity. This lens is also excellent for use as your standard lens. There is a built-in retractable sliding lens hood.

Sample Images

This fixed focal length lens combines an angle of view convenient for use as a standard lens with a macro lens working distance of approximately 3 cm from the front of the lens. This lets you shoot from closer than ever, even as compared to the smc PENTAX-DA 35mm F2.4 AL (minimum shooting distance 0.3 m), which has the same focal length. With this lens you can enjoy shooting crisp images with a sharp high-resolution feel.

The small size means you can carry your camera around without strain by bringing just this lens.
