ZOOM LENSES

You can’t be in the right place all the time, and for the photographer on the move a zoom lens makes a lot of sense. The steplessly variable focal length zoom allows a photographer to minutely compose the shot to the optimum. When you don’t have the opportunity or the time to properly compose an image, the zoom can prove to be a photographer’s friend. Zooms pack several focal lengths into one handy package and PENTAX offers many different solutions ranging from wide-angle zooms to telephotos. One constant remains, though, and that is the PENTAX guarantee of quality in the lightest of packages.
