Pentax SMC P-DA 12-24mm f/4.0 ED/AL (IF) Lens Review
Pentax SMC P-DA 12-24mm f/4.0 ED/AL (IF) Verdict
Overall, this is a fantastic quality wide angle lens, which delivers sharpness that will satisfy even the most demanding photographers. The lens is well built, and priced similarly to equivalent lenses from other camera manufacturers. It's a shame CA levels are quite high towards the edges of the frame, and that the distortion pattern has a slight wave to it, but these flaws can easily be overlooked by most who value clarity above all else. | Buy Online Now | |
