Take your photography to the next level with the HD Pentax-DA 16-50mm f/2.8 ED PLM AW Lens, a state-of-the-art addition to Ricoh Imaging's new-generation Star-series lenses. Specifically designed for PENTAX APS-C-format digital SLR cameras, this standard zoom lens promises superior image quality and high-speed, high-precision autofocus operation, especially when paired with the PENTAX K-3 Mark III.The lens incorporates the latest optical design technologies, offering high-resolution, high-contrast images even at open aperture. The inclusion of a Pulse Motor (PLM) - a first for a large-aperture lens - ensures high-speed, low-noise autofocus operation, fine-tuned for enhanced manual-focus operation. The HD Pentax-DA 16-50mm lens also features an electromagnetic diaphragm control mechanism for high precision exposure control and smooth focus tracking with compatible digital SLR cameras. With a minimum focusing distance of 0.3 meters and a maximum magnification of 0.24 times, this lens offers versatility for a range of applications, from landscape and portrait photography to everyday snapshots.This new-generation Star-series lens is designed for optimal image quality, compensating various aberrations to deliver sharp, clear images across the entire image field. The lens incorporates one ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass optical element, one anomalous glass optical element, and two ED aspherical glass optical elements, effectively reducing chromatic aberration over the entire zoom range. The lens also features a high-grade, multi-layer HD Coating, which minimizes flare and ghost images even in challenging lighting conditions. This coating, combined with the lens's high resolving power and outstanding contrast, captures beautiful images with smooth bokeh transitions and a true-to-life depth of field.The lens's maximum aperture is fixed at F2.8 over the entire focal-length range from 16 to 50 millimeters, making it an ideal regular-use lens for the PENTAX K-3 Mark III. The lens's high-speed autofocus system incorporates a newly designed optical system with a lighter, more compact focus-lens group, driven by an advanced PLM for smooth, high-speed autofocus operation with minimal noise.The HD Pentax-DA 16-50mm lens also features an electromagnetic diaphragm control mechanism for high-precision exposure control, ideal for video shooting in varying brightness conditions. When mounted on a PENTAX K-3 Mark III, PENTAX KP, or PENTAX K-70 camera body, the PLM ensures smooth focus tracking operation and flawless exposure control, reducing noise during video shooting.Designed as an All Weather (AW) model, this lens boasts a dustproof, weather-resistant construction to prevent water and dust particles from entering the lens interior. When paired with a PENTAX dustproof, weather-resistant digital SLR camera body, this lens forms part of a highly durable, reliable digital imaging system that performs superbly in demanding shooting conditions.

Very crisp and quick focus that is nearly silent. Excellent feel and build quality. I really wish I would have bought this sooner.
