Pentax HD DA 18-50mm F4-5.6 DC WR RE
The Pentax HD DA 18-50mm F4-5.6 DC WR RE, designed for use with Pentax K-mount lens-interchangeable digital cameras. This standard zoom lens features a newly developed retractable mechanism for easy storage and outstanding portability, as well as a weather-resistant construction for dependable operation under all shooting conditions.
This standard zoom lens has been developed as a compact, easy-to-use everyday lens that meets user demand for a downsized, high-resolution digital SLR imaging system. Thanks to its retractable mechanism – employed for the first time in the Pentax K-mount lens system – it provides the world’s shortest length in the stored position: just 41 millimeters. Despite its ultra-compact design that assures outstanding portability, it also features the Pentax-original HD Coating, super-low dispersion glass elements and aspherical elements to effectively compensate various aberrations for sharp, high-contrast, well-balanced images. Its built-in DC motor assures smooth, quiet autofocus operation, while its weather-resistant body makes it extremely dependable and durable in demanding outdoor conditions.
