Amazon.com Product Description
Designed for exclusive use with Pentax KAF-mount digital SLR cameras including the *ist D and the *ist DS digital SLRs, the Pentax DA 50-200mm f4-5.6 ED lens offers 4x zoom coverage in the telephoto range. Further, the lens features an angle of view from 31.5 degrees to 8.1 degrees (equivalent in focal length from 76.5mm to 306mm in the 35mm format).

The lens also incorporates an Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass lens element (11-element/10-group optical construction) and two aspherical lens elements for true-to-life image reproduction and overall size reduction. 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. The new design also contributes to a drastic reduction in size, weight and production cost, compared to 35mm-format counterparts with similar specifications.

Other features include:

  • Compact dimensions with minimal aberrations
  • Responsive Quick-Shift Focus System allows instant shift from AF to MF
  • Comes with a lens hood to minimize flare and ghost images
  • 52mm filter size
  • Weighs 9.2 ounces
  • Measures 2.6 x 3.1 inches (diameter x length)

5 out of 5 stars Unbeatable at this price   June 25, 2008

This is a great zoom. The pictures come out sharp. This lens gets plenty of light with my K200D, despite not being rated "fast".
This is a good complement to the 18-55 kit lens of the Pentax K200D.
You cannot do better for a new lens at this price.

I've used this lens as one of my 2 main lenses for over 2 years - great image quality and quick AF. Only drawback is it's not an f2.8 lens.


4 out of 5 stars Cheap zoom   May 31, 2008

If you want a cheap (low price) zoom then this is what you want. Its not very sharp at full zoom so that is something to keep in mind if you are thinking about purchasing this lens. Mine did not come with the lens hood.

W. Graff (Poughkeepsie NY)
Excellent quality lens. Have used for approx. 150 shots thus far with no problems/complaints.Pictures have been clear and crisp. This lens is an excellent addition to the kit lens provided with the purchase of Pentax K10D and Pentax K100D. Purchased this lens for a great price through Amazon.com.


5 out of 5 stars Pentax DA 50-200mm Lens   April 28, 2008
Linda C. Palmer (Birmingham, AL USA)
WOW! This lens is so easy to use and makes good "shots" GREAT PICTURES! I recently bought the Pentax DSLR camera so I'm not really proficient yet, but after using manual focus lenses for years, it's wonderful to have an auto focus! The ease of "fine tuning" manually with this lens is awesome!
One thing I've learned, the hard way, is to match your lens with the camera. Pentax allows the use of Pentax manual lens on their digital cameras. I have 3 lenses that are not Pentax and I can't use them on my Pentax DSLR camera.
The price for this lens was also perfect. I saved hundreds over buying the most recent lens.
