This is one of the lenses that has made a lot of pros keep their Pentax gear, as it is superbly made, sharp as a needle, and very small. Can't fault it in any way!
A lovely little lens; superb in every way
Could be cheaper; I guess :-)

Excellent quality metal construction; Great optics; Compact and lightweight.
Too bad it's not f/2.8 or faster; but at this size who can complain
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Consistent Output; Durable; Lightweight; Rugged; Sharp Focus; Strong Construction

The limited series is a must have if you own a pentax dslr. This DA21mm shoots exceptionally sharp pictures and is great for landscape photography.

very good wide angle lens (not so wide on an APSC) Pros: top picture quality you can get at this price; super slim design only from pentax (cannon's pancake is ....); top grade build quality includes lens cap and hood; cons: too small for some bigger hands; small aperture (hard to build a big one in...
I believe each lens should be considered with its intended use in mind. A portrait photographer has no need for an ultra-wide lens. So what is the intended purpose of the DA 21? For me, its purpose is to work as a portable, handheld task force with the F50 f1,7.
Very tiny, light, and sharp wide angle lens.
