The highest quality optical systems have been the goal of PENTAX since 1919. PENTAX has always followed the 
principle of manufacturing timeless high-quality lenses that will be compatible with future camera models. Regardless 
of their targeted application the new lenses are noted for being particularly bright, flexible and compact. Whether a 
zoom for an increased focal length range, a telephoto to bring distant objects near or a macro lens to give life to the 
smallest subject – The PENTAX lens system offers the range for today’s cameras. 

Premium Lenses: Limited edition

In the time when the rest of the photographic industry was controlled by key words like “budget price, enormous 

zoom range”, plastic lenses and plastic lens housings, PENTAX embarked on a unique program of producing very 

special lenses. Very soon the first lenses bearing the designation “Limited Edition” were offered for our 35mm SLR 

range. These were comprised of high-quality lenses with fixed focal lengths. The first-rate optical quality is under-

lined through their costly precision lens housings: the f/stop numbers and depth-of-field scales are engraved into the 

metal lens barrel instead of being screen printed. The lens hood is a rigid component part of the lens construction 

– that reflects the beauty and function of the design – and is precisely adapted to the lens. The new 70mm f/2.4 is 

the latest representative of this acclaimed series.

And why Limited?

Given these very refined details, it is easily understood that lenses such as these do not roll off the assembly line in 

great quantities. The daily output may be limited, but the lifetime of the lens most certainly is not.
