Review on Compact and Sharp: Explore the Pentax DA 40mm f/2.8 XS Lens by Hayden Iskandar ᠌

I actually got it for free, along with the Pentax K-01 kit, so for me this is a very good purchase. But if you buy separately new, then, in my opinion, it’s definitely not him, but SMC Pentax DA 40mm f / 2.8 Limited. Got pros: According to the optical design, this is the famous SMC Pentax-M 1: 2.8 / 40mm Compact lens with a chic design. Covers full frame. Can be used on film cameras that have the ability to set the aperture from the camera. Cons: By design, this is a castrated DA 40mm f/2.8 Limited. The scale of distances has disappeared, the frame has been changed - a normal filter can no longer be screwed on, instead of a cover there is a rubber cork that tries to get lost on the very first day. A clear example of the fact that the author's design is not always good.
