HD Pentax-D FA 24-70mm f/2.8 ED SDM WR Review
HD Pentax-D FA 24-70mm f/2.8 ED SDM WR Verdict
Twice the price of the Pentax 28-105mm zoom, but the 24-70mm offers a constant bright f/2.8 aperture and even a slightly higher level of performance. It really is a personal choice, but this lens is a very satisfying one to use and offers lovely results with a very high level of consistency over its entire range.
This is definitely a lens of choice for the Pentax K-1 with its full frame format.
