The smc PENTAX-DA* 200mm F2.8 ED[IF] SDM is a uni-focal telephoto lens with a focal length equivalent to 307mm in the 35mm format. With a maximum aperture of F2.8, it is ideal for indoor sports events and stage performances requiring fast shutter speeds to freeze action, and for portraits against a smooth, beautiful out-of-focus background. Featuring advanced technologies such as special optical glass elements and PENTAX-original lens coatings, it is designed to assure exceptional optical performance and deliver clear, high-contrast images, even at image-field edges. It also features ED (extra-low dispersion) optical elements in its second and fifth lens.
- SDM mechanism, assuring extra-smooth, super-quiet autofocus operation using a supersonic motor installed in the lens (Conventional autofocus operation using a camera-installed motor is also possible.)
- Dust-resistant, weather-resistant construction with a set of seals to prevent intrusion of dust and water into the lens
- Inner Focus mechanism for effective compensation of various aberrations at all focusing distances
- SP (Super Protect) coating applied to the front surface of the optics to block dust and dirt
- Quick-Shift Focus system for instant switching to manual-focus operation after the subject is captured in focus by the AF system
