Pentax FA 77mm 1.8 Limited

Some objects just feel right when you touch them the first type, the 77mm 1.8 is such an object – and mounted on the camera it is as if it disappears to become a natural extension of your body, and, perhaps also, your conscious or subconscious intention.

In 2014 the 77mm 1.8 was awarded “The undisputed Greatest Pentax Lens of All Time” on Pentax Forums.

This photo was shot with another favrouite lens of mine, the 35mm macro 2.8 from the same series.
