Used Pentax-M SMC 50mm f/1.7 K Mount Lens

The Pentax-M SMC 50mm f/1.7 Lens is a compact and highly regarded manual-focus standard prime designed for Pentax K-mount 35mm film SLR cameras, widely appreciated for its excellent optical quality, simplicity, and affordability. Featuring a bright f/1.7 maximum aperture, it offers strong low-light performance and attractive shallow depth-of-field control, making it ideal for portraits, street photography, travel, and everyday shooting. Its 50mm focal length provides a natural perspective similar to human vision, making it one of the most versatile and intuitive lenses in the Pentax system. The lens is known for delivering sharp images, pleasing contrast, and natural colour reproduction, enhanced by Pentax’s Super Multi Coating (SMC) which helps reduce flare and improve clarity. Built with solid metal construction and smooth manual focus and aperture rings, it reflects the durable engineering of the Pentax-M series while remaining lightweight and compact. Fully manual in operation, with aperture control via the K-mount system, it offers a tactile and engaging shooting experience that is highly valued by film photographers and vintage lens enthusiasts.
