Pentax's budget APS-C kit zoom — lightweight DA L tier with basic 27-82.5mm equiv coverage.

The Pentax SMC DA L 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL is a budget kit zoom for Pentax APS-C DSLRs, released approximately 2007 as a lower-cost version of the standard SMC DA 18-55mm. The DA L designation indicates simplified construction relative to the standard DA series, including a plastic bayonet mount in most production runs. Pentax K mount.

18-55mm zoom range (approximately 27-84mm equivalent on APS-C). f/3.5-5.6 variable aperture. Seven elements in five groups with one aspherical element (AL designation). Pentax K mount. 52mm filter thread. At approximately 200g. No weather sealing. AF driven by in-body motor — no SDM (supersonic drive motor) in lens.

The DA L reduces cost versus the standard DA by using a plastic mount and simplified mechanical construction; the optical formula with aspherical element is otherwise retained from the standard DA 18-55mm, giving comparable image quality. All Pentax AF-capable DSLRs provide the body-motor drive required for AF with this lens.

On the used market the Pentax SMC DA L 18-55mm is an inexpensive kit zoom for Pentax DSLRs. Condition checks: plastic mount for wear or cracks (the primary durability concern over the standard DA), zoom and focus ring smoothness, 52mm front element, AF response. The plastic mount is less durable than the standard DA metal mount.
