Long highly regarded optics by professionals, this portrait lens allows head and shoulder composition at comfortable 5 ft. distance, with a fast f2.8 speed. The lens has a built in lens shade making it very compact for storage. The Pentax Super Multi Coating lens process is very well respected to further reduce lens flare. All told it is a extremely useful medium telephoto lens that consistently produces the legendary quality images associated with the Pentax 6x7 system, extremely well build with professionals in mind, all at what's considered a reasonable price point. A timeless piece of photographic equipment that will always hold value for photographers interested in among other areas, fine art images.
As with a lot of the Pentax 67 lenses this one does not disappoint. I brought it because I usually work in low lighting conditions or I am after a narrow DOF and this lens delivers it with it's huge F/2.8 aperture. After a few pictures with it at more reasonable apertures it is razor sharp and even when it's wide open it's still sharp (when your subject is within the very narrow margins of the DOF that is). The only real niggle is throughout most of the aperture settings there is half stops between each aperture setting (F/8 then another click then F/11 for example) between F/2.8 and F/5.6 there is 2 clicks instead. I've not managed to work out whether it's F/2.8, F/4, another click then F/5.6 or what. Only a minor point though.
All is great!
