Pentax 2/55mm | Analogue camera

This fixed‑focal-length Asahi Pentax 55mm standard lens is a classic standard optic renowned for its excellent build quality and sharp optical performance. Characterized by the famous SMC technology, i.e., Super Multi Coating of Pentax, this lens drastically reduces internal reflections and ghosting, guaranteeing high-contrast images and faithful colors in any lighting condition. With a maximum aperture of f/2, the lens offers good brightness, ideal for natural light shots and for achieving a soft bokeh in portraits. The specimen shown in the photo features a front element in excellent condition with anti-reflective coatings intact and scratch-free, while the black barrel keeps engraved markings clearly legible, including the focal length indications and the serial number. The mount is the versatile Pentax K‑mount, making this optic compatible with a vast range of the brand’s analog SLRs and also usable on modern digital cameras via common adapters. The focusing and aperture mechanisms are smooth and precise, typical of the prestigious Japanese optical production Asahi Optical Co. Co. This lens represents an ideal choice for both Pentax system collectors and photographers who want a vintage, reliable lens with high performance.
