Compact manual focus wide-angle lens for Pentax K-mount cameras.
The SMC Pentax-M 35mm f/2 is a compact wide-angle prime from Pentax's M series, designed alongside the ultra-compact ME and MX camera bodies. The M series prioritised minimal size and weight while retaining Pentax's Super Multi Coating for optical quality.
35mm focal length, f/2 maximum aperture, SMC (Super Multi Coated), Pentax K bayonet mount, compact M-series design, 49mm filter thread.
The M 35mm f/2 provides a useful wide-angle perspective with a reasonably fast aperture for available-light photography. Sharpness is good from f/2.8 and excellent from f/5.6. Its compact size makes it an ideal pairing for the ME Super or MX cameras for a minimal SLR kit. Compatible with all K-mount Pentax bodies.
Inspect for fungus, haze, and coating condition. Test focus helicoid smoothness. Confirm K-mount bayonet engagement. Check aperture blades are oil-free.
