Compact Pentax A-series 35mm with SMC coating, affordable wide-angle with auto exposure compatibility.
The Pentax SMC Pentax-A 35mm f/3.5 is a compact wide-angle prime with A-series auto exposure compatibility for the Pentax K-mount. The 35mm perspective provides the most popular moderate wide-angle view, and the A-series designation enables programmed auto exposure on compatible bodies.
The SMC coating provides Pentax's characteristic excellent contrast and colour accuracy, and the A-series mount coupling enables automated exposure modes. The compact dimensions maintain K-mount portability, and the 35mm view suits street, landscape, and documentary photography.
Build quality is compact Pentax A-series with quality construction and smooth manual focus. The standard 49mm filter thread maintains system compatibility, and the small size creates a portable wide-angle kit with compact Pentax bodies.
The SMC Pentax-A 35mm f/3.5 offers quality wide-angle with auto exposure at minimal used cost. The A-series compatibility and SMC coating provide useful advantages over older K-series alternatives.
