Product Overview
Pentax HD Pentax DA 16-85mm F3.5-5.6 ED DC WR is a standard zoom lens for Pentax K-mount. It covers the APS-C image circle. Introduced by Pentax in 2014, it has 16 elements in 12 groups.
Like most zoom lenses, the HD Pentax DA 16-85mm F3.5-5.6 ED DC WR is externally-zooming. For incremental weathers, Pentax is kind enough to include weather sealing.
A standard zoom lens with moderate aperture, the HD Pentax DA 16-85mm F3.5-5.6 ED DC WR is more of a "volume seller" than a premium option. Still, some photographers may find the results "good enough".
