The Pentax-D FA 24-70mm f/2.8 ED SDM WR is a classic DSLR lens – in fact, it just passed its tenth birthday, marking a decade since the lens was first announced on September 24 2015.
But while this workhorse optic is getting up there in age for a camera lens, shooting with the Pentax-D FA 24-70mm f/2.8 ED SDM WR felt like a nod to the classics. The lens created lovely colors and flare – but there are some downsides to shooting with a DSLR in a mirrorless era, including the autofocus.
