The HD Pentax-D FA* 85mm f/1.4 SDM AW lens is a professional short telephoto prime lens for the Pentax K-mount. The lens was officially announced on February 26, 2019, launched on June 25, 2020 and announced to be first shipped on June 26, 2020.

Notable features include the company's second in-house ring-type ultrasonic motor with 1.3x the torque of the Pentax D FA* 50mm lens for fast autofocus, full dust and water resistance with eight sealings and an advanced optical formula for high-resolution images with smooth bokeh.

Notes

1. Lenses with the K_AF4 mount use electromagnetic diaphragms, omitting the mechanical aperture lever found on most Pentax lenses. Pentax DSLRs released before 2013, as well as the K-500, have not been updated to support K_AF4 lenses and will always shoot with the aperture wide-open because they cannot control the diaphragm.
