Pentax SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/2
Pentax SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/2 - Good Condition | Classic Standard Prime in Pentax K Mount
The Pentax SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/2 is a beautifully crafted standard prime from Pentax's respected M-series lens lineup — a compact, sharp, and characterful optic that delivers exceptional image quality with the natural rendering quality that SMC Pentax glass is universally renowned for. The SMC (Super Multi Coating) designation reflects Pentax's advanced multi-layer coating technology — delivering outstanding contrast, accurate colour rendition, and exceptional resistance to flare and ghosting. The M-series designation indicates a compact and lightweight design philosophy — making this one of the most elegantly proportioned 50mm lenses ever produced. In Pentax K mount, it pairs naturally with the full range of Pentax K mount film and digital bodies and adapts effortlessly to modern mirrorless systems. Serial number SR 5165511.
Key Features
- 50mm focal length — classic standard perspective for portraits, street, and everyday shooting
- f/2 maximum aperture for excellent low-light performance and pleasing background separation
- SMC (Super Multi Coating) for outstanding contrast, colour accuracy, and flare resistance
- Pentax K mount — compatible with all Pentax K mount film and digital bodies and mirrorless via adapter
- Compact and lightweight M-series design
- Manual focus operation with smooth, well-damped focus ring
- Solid all-metal construction of the highest quality
- A genuine classic from Asahi Optical Co.'s golden era of lens making
Condition Report
- Body: Good condition — light marks consistent with age and use, no cracks or damage to barrel or mount
- Optics: Elements clean and clear — no fungus, haze, or significant dust; SMC coatings intact
- Mechanics: Focus ring operates smoothly and precisely; aperture blades clean and snappy; mount clean and secure
"The SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/2 is one of those lenses that Pentax photographers treasure above almost any other. The Super Multi Coating delivers a contrast and colour accuracy that is immediately apparent, and the compact M-series barrel makes it one of the most elegant 50mm lenses ever made. Slightly more modest in aperture than the f/1.7 but equally sharp and characterful — a genuine joy to use on any Pentax body or modern mirrorless via adapter."
