Description

The Pentax SMCP-DA* 300mm f/4 ED (IF) SDM Autofocus Lens is a high-quality telephoto lens that is designed for exclusive use with Pentax DSLR cameras.

The Pentax SMCP-DA* 300mm f/4 ED (IF) SDM Autofocus Lens is a high-quality telephoto lens that is designed for exclusive use with Pentax digital SLR cameras.

It offers a focal length that is equivalent (in 35mm format) to 450mm. This wide coverage is ideal for a variety of telephoto applications, including portraiture, sports and scenery.

Pentax DA* (DA-Star) zoom lenses come equipped with the SDM System, which assures smoother, quieter auto-focusing operation by using a built-in supersonic motor. When mounted on the K10D digital SLR camera body, the focus mode is automatically switched to SDM-assisted auto-focusing. When mounted on older Pentax digital SLR camera bodies, the conventional autofocus mode using a camera-mounted motor is selected.

Like all Pentax lenses the Pentax SMCP-DA* 300mm f/4 ED (IF) SDM Autofocus Lens is treated with SMC coating for maximum light transmission, sharp definition, and high contrast images. In addition, SP (Super Protective) coating made of a special fluoride compound has been applied to the front surface of the lens using a unique evaporation process. As a result, the lens offers excellent water- and oil-repellent performance and makes for easier cleaning should the lens be accidentally smeared with fingerprints or cosmetics.

Note:

Not compatible with “full-frame” (35mm size) cameras

Designed for Digital SLRs

The image circle in DA-series lenses is designed to perfectly match the 23.5mm x 15.7mm size of the CCD used in Pentax digital SLRs to optimize camera performance. This design also contributes to a drastic reduction in size, weight and production cost, compared to 35mm-format counterparts with similar specifications.

DA*-Series

DA*-series lenses feature tightly sealed, weather-resistant and dust-resistant construction that enhance durability for use in rain or dusty conditions.

SP Coating

SP (Super Protective) coating made of a special fluoride compound has been applied to the front surface of the lens to offer excellent water- and oil-repellent performance.

Quick-Shift Focus

Quick-Shift Focus System allows to instantly switch the focus mode from AF to manual with a slight twist of the focus ring.

High Optical Quality

Incorporates Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass lens elements to compensate for chromatic aberration.
