Digital camera reviews of Pentax DA 40mm f/2.8 Ultra Compact Lens for Pentax and Samsung Digital SLR Cameras

Digital camera Review: Excellent quality
Summary: 5 Stars

For pentax digital body users, for standard fixed focal length lens

most popular choice would be a FA35mm f2.0 and this DA40(for this price-under $300! it's good!)

DA40 is surely better as it is small and light. The image quality was

satifactory. It is a bit dark(f2.8) but I had no problem to take picture

of my 2 year old baby in the room(night) without flash.

I trashed the carton box of the lens - After use, I realized that I have

no reason to sell this lens to someone else. Yes, I'll keep it until I have a pentax body.
