Delivering an unmistakably distinct bokeh quality, the Meyer-Optik Trioplan 100mm f/2.8 II Lens for Pentax Kfrom Meyer-Optik Trioplan 100mm f/2.8 II Lens for Pentax Kis an update to and centennial commemoration of a classic vintage optic and is available here for Pentax K-mount cameras. Version II of this manual-focus telephoto prime utilizes a revised triplet optical design to produce a distinguished image quality with strong colors and central sharpness, along with improved contrast and higher resolution rendering. Also, fifteen aperture blades further help to produce smooth circular bokeh that is the lens's calling card, dubbed "soap bubble bokeh." Additionally, differing from the classic design of the century-old predecessor, this lens does feature modern coated Schott glass optics for notable contrast and color neutrality when working in strong lighting conditions.

Version II of this lens sees an improved optical design to achieve greater contrast and resolution, along with a redeveloped mechanical design with smoother operation and a more streamlined form factor.

Short-telephoto prime is designed for full-frame Pentax K-mount cameras, however is also compatible with APS-C models where it will provide an 150mm equivalent focal length.

Using a traditional triplet optical design, this three-element, three-group lens produces a uniquely classic image quality coupled with a distinct "soap bubble" bokeh quality.

Coated Schott glass is used for high clarity and contrast, as well as reduced lens flare and ghosting.

Manual focus design permits working with subjects as close as 2.95' away.

Fifteen diaphragm blades help produce an artistic and distinctly circular bokeh quality.

Front 52mm filter thread is consistent throughout the Meyer-Optik Gorlitz version II lens series.

[15] As said by some expects many times in past - 'You Love it or you hate it'. I am not the technical person to do dissection of lens and come up with details about how it is made and what’s magical inside it to get Soap Bubble Effect (dreamy bokeh) For me, I wanted to lost myself in the dreamy bokeh. That’s the wish and it came true when I found 1 last copy left in stock at B&H. I had a chat with the service representative and ordered it immediately. I was shocked to get it in mere 7 days in lockdown time (Covid Crisis). Its shipped from USA to UK, though Germany is near UK, but the manufacturer didn’t have this in stock. I had concerns about shipment but it came before time. Lens is well made and feels solid to handle. Its packaging is super awesome. The way it’s packed is very nice. When you unbox the package, you may find the outbox is just a piece of cardboard. Beauty lies inside the box, when the first layer was uncovered, I was mesmerized by the main box. It reminded me of the box in which my mum used to keep gold jewellery in India. A velvet packing inside with lens and lens hood. Lens hood has got threads to fix to the lens. The Aperture ring is very smooth to operate. It's click-less and a boon for videographers. See attached videos. It is super easy to use an aperture ring to increase or decrease the f-stop values. For me, I am not going to go beyond F4 as I bought this lens for art work especially Macro and also for some artistic model shoots. I got his lens for soap bubble effect and I will keep it mostly at F2.8 for all my Macro work. At F2.8 it's super awesome, it generates magical soap bubbles. It’s all a matter of the direction of the light source and you are done, rest is magic of aperture blades and elements within the lens. You make composition, get focus by physically moving forward or backward if doing handheld photography and then just click the shutter button. Focus ring is smoo with a ideal kind of resistance which makes it a joy to operate 5

[Pentax K] Nice lens with nice bubble bokeh. Nice vintage effect. Creates a dreamy world or sceneray. You need to get used to the manual settings and handling (nowadays where everything is automatic) but it works quite fast. Delivery of B&H was very fast even from the US to Switzerland. I can highly recommend the lens and as well B&H. 5

[Pentax K] The lens is still subject to side light and flaring, but NOT direct on sun shots. I am waiting on the other Meyer Optik lenses to come out of production, but this lens better then my vintage version. I love it. 5
