Are you interested in a camera lens that offer both quality and value? In this free video, Outdoor Photography Guide’s Matt Bishop updates you on a vintage camera lens, the Pentax SMC 50mm F1.7 lens, a reminder of the pre-digital era, and what it was like shooting film. Although it has a manual focus, Matt believes this versatile lens offers you the opportunity to get creative with your compositions.

He demonstrates the Pentax SMC 50mm F1.7 lens, which is lightweight and inexpensive, and with good colors and contrast. In an Italian village, he photographs old boats on a lovely lake to show the range of this Pentax 50mm lens.
