Review on PENTAX Limited Lens - HD PENTAX-DA21mmF3.2AL Limited Silver K Mount APS-C Size - Thin Wide-Angle Single Focus Lens (21420) by Abhi Abhilasha ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

My impression of the purchase is good, buy it.

The choice of 20-mm fixes is small. As a rule, everything here is either very expensive and heavy (reference Zeiss 21mm), or expensive and no better (for example, I had to shoot with sigma 20 / 1,8 - for money it’s an analogue , and in general, the lens is not bad, but the image quality comparable to the lim is still only with f / 8 . 11, and is it worth carrying more than half a kilogram of unnecessary aperture?) Therefore, the 21st lim with its quality-price-weight ratio, piece can be said to be indispensable. Of course, I would like to expect a little stronger edges from him, but . what is, is. There is a solid four on a five-point scale and the highest demand in landscape and hiking.)

Pros
  • 1. Good color reproduction (bright and accurate colors in any light and aperture) 2. Small ext. light scattering in the back (catches hares, not without it, but very small ones) 3. Good contrast and field resolution. 4. Very compact and lightweight, yet durable design.
Cons
  • 1. Significant curvature of the field. 2. H. A. not to say that they are large (we have seen them many times more), but at the edges, along the borders with an extreme difference in brightness, the editor cannot be avoided.

Worth the money, not an optical masterpiece, but . It's strange to expect half a resolution from the width or, say, 43 lima . Sharpness is enough for the landscape . I'm satisfied
