About this product

Product Information

Ideal for portrait, still life, or low light photography, the Pentax DA 55mm F1.4 SDM lens assures outstanding image quality with clear, high-contrast images, even at image field edges thanks to super-low-dispersion optical elements, extra-low dispersion (ED) optical elements and Pentax original lens coatings. It features water and dust resistant sealing for reliable operation in inclement conditions, and the Pentax quick-shift focus system to allow instant auto-to-manual focus switching. The objective lens surface is treated with Pentax original Super Protect (SP) coating. This special fluorine compound is applied through a vapor deposition process to create a surface that effectively repels dust, water and grease. The combination of special lens coatings, ideal curvature and best positioning of optical elements assures optimized digital imaging characteristics, while effectively minimizing flare/ghosting. It also features an aero bright coating for maximum light transmission, and rounded diaphragm blades to create a more circular aperture for smooth, beautiful bokeh at large apertures. The advanced SDM mechanism assures extra-smooth, super-quiet autofocus operation using a supersonic motor installed in the lens body. Thanks to its SDM-exclusive autofocus system, the lens is quite compact, despite its large maximum aperture.

Extremely happy with this purchase. Seller understood and adjusted price to reflect my risk buying equipment in condition documented. But when camera arrived, it was in much better condition, was fully functional and exceeded my most optimistic expectation. Fully tested camera. Seller shipped at first opportunity, well packaged and arrived quickly. Absolutely no complaint. Great communication. Highly recommend seller. A++++++

Very happy with this purchase. The description fits properly. Fastest ever seen shipping start from the seller (Less than 30 minutes after purchase, the package was registered for shipping). Rest of the shipment was very slow (1 month!! But this is not on responsibility of the seller and also clearly communicated from ebay-shipping) Packing was “ok” for an international shipping. The Lense arrived healthy at Switzerland.

Excellent lens with minor drawbacks.
First things first, this is a premium lens, so if you are looking for a "nifty fifty" go buy the 50mm f1.8 or a vintage lens. If you are looking for an excellent APS-C portrait lens with all of the bells and whistles, this is the lens to get. This lens does fantastic work on pretty much everything you point it at though, so dont think this only has to be for portraits. The cons of the lens are pretty simple: - AF is relatively slow and not the fastest at all. One of the slower lenses, but the focus throw isnt bad. AF is however practically silent and manual focusing is a joy. Its also somtimes necesarry with such a low depth of field, so slow focusing is not exactly a problem. -Premium price tag for basically a fancy 55mm prime, but its absolutely worth it. (Will explain) -Background ... First things first, this is a premium lens, so if you are looking for a "nifty fifty" go buy the 50mm f1.8 or a vintage lens.

(Will explain) -Background blurr can be busy sometimes, but its not particularly ugly Neutral aspects of the lens: -A little glowy and soft wide open, but its still acceptably sharp and sharper than pretty much everything else that has an f1.4 aperature. Stopped down just a little bit the lens progressively gets sharper, as f1.8 is really sharp while f1.4 is decently sharp. -No screw drive for older cameras, not really an issue. Get a better body if you are still using an old old camera and have enough money to buy a lens like this, make use of the sharpness. -Relatively big compared to over 50mm lenses, but its actually not big at all and balances really well with the camera. I have a pentax k3 and it is perfect. The pros of the lens: -One of the sharpest if not the sharpest pentax lens currently available when stopped down. Even stopped just a little bit gives incredible sharpness. -Super fast aperature is excellent for blurring the background and makes a huge difference as far as the amount of light that is let in. This lens will open you up to excellent low light photography. -Build quality is amazing and second to none. Limited pentax lenses are amazing too but not in a practical sense. Metal feels more durable and nice, but with premium plastics and rubberized focusing rings, the DA* 55mm will be able to withstand more abuse. It also comes with an excellent felt lined hood. Lens is completely solid and flawless. -Weather sealed, take this thing anywhere. This is a huge plus and one of the reasons the price is justified. -Flare and CA resistant, not outstanding but pretty good. Aerobright coating is great. -Handling is excellent with silent AF and a smooth soft stop rubberized focusing ring. A removable piece in the hood makes a window for accessing and moving filters. There is an AF/MF switch as well as quick shift so you can autofocus and then immediately manually adjust. -It's a DA* lens. It looks cool, it has gold on it, and it gives the impression that you are handling a quality product. It makes you want to use it, because you know it will take good pictures if you use it correctly. If you want the best of the best (excluding autofocus speed), are interested in all weather and low-light capabilities, crazy sharpness, and crave that 3D depth of field isolation, buy this lens!!! Do not buy this lens if you want a 50mm prime just to explore photography and learn the basics. This lens will still be excellent, but it is for getting the most out of your camera, and therefore 5x as much as a regular "fantastic plastic" 50mm f1.8.

Perfect even with small disadvantages!
I bought that lens for shooting a portraits. I needed small DOF and good separation from background. Pentax SMC DA 55 mm F/1.4 SDM have only small disadvantages: the first is size (but for 85mm eqiv. it is nothing) the second is purple fringing in background with open wide apertures (but probably because of that lens have such great bokeh! yeah!) and thirds (the most important) is flares in back-light shooting. Build quality is great. Speed of AF is enough for portrait. Lens hood is large but give the good protection not only unnecessary light but even from environment objects like branchs. Weather protection helps to shoot in any condition!I bought that lens for shooting a portraits. I needed small DOF and good separation from background.

Great prime lens
Pentax DA*55mm is a great prime lens. light, well made, and very sharp IQ. The only minor flaw that i see is that the lens hood is a little too small, for me, to get the lens cap back on. but that might not be a problem for others. auto-focus works great and is silent. score the lens 9.5/10.

The best lens Pentax makes for APS-C
Quite simply stated: this is the best lens Pentax makes for the APS-C class of DSLRs. It consistently gets the highest reviews and performs outstandingly in tests. And In my own recent experience, the lens goes above and beyond my expectations.
