38mm
You do not have to be so close to get a close-up
with a 170mm telephoto, power zoom lens. Now
you can fill the frame as you please, creating
expressive shots with a high level of detail.
Versatile zooming from 38mm wide angle allows
you to view a whole scene before moving in for a
tightly framed shot. It makes it easy to achieve
pleasing portraits and gives you the power to
capture the finer points from farther away. Such
an impressive zooming range has been realized
through the use of the innovative Switchover
Zoom system, which divides the lenses into wide
angle and telephoto groups. This system supports
a reduction in overall lens size which is further
complemented by a new barrel design that allows
extension and retraction in four steps. Pentax has
even scaled down the shutter in order to realize
minimal exterior dimensions.
