Model overview based on user reviews
The Pentax 40mm f/2.8 SMC DA Limited lens is appreciated for its good color rendition, sharpness, and ability to produce a rich picture. However, users have noted that it may experience underexposure at apertures above 2.8, particularly at aperture 8, where it can be almost a stop off. This issue might be specific to certain units, as it was not observed in other lenses during comparative tests. Despite this, the lens is considered a good choice and holds a valuable place in its niche.
Pros
Cons
The lens has the right to occupy its niche. good color rendition, quite sharp, rich picture. at apertures above 2.8, underexposure occurs. At aperture 8, almost a stop. Experiments were carried out in comparison with other lenses, where this effect was not observed. I admit that this phenomenon could only appear in my specimen.  byvalyy: use Pentax 40mm f/2.8 SMC DA Limited few months |
