| Improved optical performance in close-up photography |
|
| Four SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements are used for correction of all type of aberrations. The high-resolution power layout has improved the strength of the lens in close-up photography. |
|
| The close focusing capability allows close-up photography |
|
| The minimum focusing distance of 100cm/39.4in and maximum magnification ratio of 1:5.3 make it particularly useful for close-up photography. |

The HSM ensures fast and quiet autofocusing and allows full-time manual focus override by rotation of the focus ring.
* AF will not function if the Pentax camera bodies do not support HSM. |
|
| APO Tele-Converter (Optional) |
|
The addition of the optical 1.4x EX DG APO or 2x EX DG APO Tele Converters * produce a 70-210mm F4 AF telephoto lens a 100-300mm F5.6 AF telephoto zoom lens respectively. Specially designed to provide optimum performance with the master lenses.
* The Pentax mount Tele Converter is not compatible with this particular lens. |
|
|
| The lens design incorporates an inner focusing and inner zooming system. As the overall length of the lens does not change during focusing and zooming, convenient handling is ensured. It eliminates front lens rotation, making the lens particularly suitable for using circular polarizing filters. |
|
|
| *Vignetting will occur if the lens is used with digital cameras with image sensors lager than APS-C size or 35mm SLR cameras. |
