Lenses
The line of lenses consisted of these three at launch:
- 18 mm f/2.8 wide-angle lens (equivalent angle of view to a 35 mm lens on a 135 format camera).
- 24 mm f/2.8 normal lens (Equiv. 50 mm). The optical design meant that this was the smallest lens on the system.
- 50 mm f/2.8 telephoto lens (Equiv. 100 mm)
In 1981, three more lenses were included:
- 18 mm "Pan Focus" lens was a compact lens of fixed focus set to the hyperfocal distance; the short focal length and wide aperture meant that its depth of field stretched from 1.75 m (5.7 ft) to infinity.
- 70 mm f/2.8 telephoto lens (Equiv. 140 mm)
- 20–40 mm f/2.8 zoom lens (Equiv. 40–80 mm). This lens extended for wider focal lengths and shortened towards the telephoto end.
The three later lenses are much rarer.
Soligor also made a 1.7x teleconverter.
Lens hoods were available for all of the lenses, and Pentax sold add-on close-up lenses for macro photography and a range of filters.

Famous quotes containing the word lenses:
“Life is a train of moods like a string of beads, and, as we pass through them, they prove to be many-colored lenses which paint the world their own hue, and each shows only what lies in its focus.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
