Frequently asked questions
Does this lens autofocus on Pentax DSLRs?
Yes. Pentax K-mount DSLR bodies all have a built-in AF motor that drives screw-drive AF lenses, so this works on every K-mount body.
Does this lens have image stabilisation?
Not in the lens itself. Pentax DSLR bodies have in-body Shake Reduction (SR), which stabilises all lenses you mount, including this one.
