FS: Lowepro Faskpack 250
I have recently bought a new bag so my trusty Lowepro Fastpack is no longer required. I have had this for many years and is the original version of the design (I think). But after a wash it is still in great condition with many years life in it still, and has plenty of room for photo gear, personal ...

Wanted Pentax mount 500mm lens
Depends on budget, the 150-450 is supposed to be very good but very expensive. Depends on whether you need a zoom (better for airshows etc) or a prime. Lenses over 400 will always be big & heavy unless you go for a mirror. Mirrors are a fraction of the size & weight and much easier to handle. The...

Wanted Pentax mount 500mm lens
I got decent results out of the last version of the 50-500mm (OS DG HSM) at the long end and it really did come into it's own when requiring close focus. The FA* 250-600mm I had was very nice but a pain to carry so almost never went anywhere whereas the 150-450mm is literally on my K-1 95% of the ti...

Wanted Pentax mount 500mm lens
.....I do wish Ricoh would bring out a full frame AF 1.4x teleconverter though, just can't understand why they haven't considering we have the DA* 200mm, DA* 300mm, D-FA 70-200mm, D-FA 70-210mm and D-FA 150-400mm (and even some of the old FA* lenses) that would all benefit from it. Got to agree - it...

Wanted Pentax mount 500mm lens
All this reminded me that I acquired (from one of our members) a Kalimar f8/500 some while back. It's a loo -oong, thin thing, about 14inches unextended, thankfully with a tripod mount. I recall trying it and being very impressed with the results, if not with the rather difficult handling. I haven't...

Wanted Pentax mount 500mm lens
And back on the original topic (400 to 500ish lenses) - if you come across an FA*400/5.6 at a decent price then it's a lens I'd recommend, Quality is very good and the lens is so compact and light for it's focal length - I picked one up a couple of years back (not at a decent price :( ) and since...

Bellows and slide copier.
I've had a go at focus stacking macro using a set of Zenit bellows with m42 lens and camera mounts. I'd not necessarily recommend them, they seem a bit femma. I'm waiting for a BPM set with K mounts arriving, but I also saw these on Ffordes eBay site . You can get the interchangeable mounts from M...

FS - Sigma 70 - 200 F2.8 II APO EX DG Macro Boxed with un-used case
Bump, as the country is looking to get back to some form of normality, what-ever that is, I thought it worth re-advertising my Sigma 70 - 200 F2.8

FS - Sigma 8-16 - broken
Hello all, today I took some time to clean the lenses and finally decided to take a few pictures of this lens and try to find a new home for it. I bought this lens used in 2015, unfortunately during the shipment something went wrong: when it arrived it was damaged. At that time I was trying to ...

Swap?? - Pentax 645 FA 45-85mm f/4.5
I have the above but I'm just not using it much and think a longer lens would be more suitable for me. It is in excellent condition with clear glass, zoom ring and focus ring both work smoothly. I'm looking for a 150mm or 200mm lens to swap if you have one you want to part with? Please get in tou...

FS - Pentax K-3, lenses and accessories
Regrettably I am having to self-isolate for 12 weeks and also need a lighter system as the condition I have affects both joints and stamina. Therefore I am selling the following Pentax equipment to fund a change in system I have pondered for many weeks. It has all been well cared for, and each item ...

Pentax K-1, lenses, extras.
All, I am looking at changing systems (shock horror, I know) but will stay firmly seated in this wonderful community. Realistically, my system won't change but only the camera body, save for one lens (currently). As such, I'm looking to offload a good 'starter' set into full-frame photography as we...

FS cheap Pentax 16-45mm and 50-200mm
Hi folks I have two lenses i don't use anymore and would ask for 20 GBP (incl. shipping UK only) each - or your lower offer if you think that's not in your budget and a reason why you might enjoy it. SMC Pentax DA 16-45mm: Got it used, it is old and looks old, but works fine. I think it's no...

FS: Pentax 55-300mm HD PLM. 2 months old SRS warranty.
I would fully be up for a swap like this. I'm in the other boat, in that I'm looking to upgrade my current metal mount 55-300 to the PLM version as I'm hoping this would focus better with the K-3. I suspect shipping between NZ and UK would be painfully slow at the moment, so right trade/wrong time...

WTB: Pentax D-BC90 Battery Charger (for K-1/K-3)
Hey guys, I'm looking for a genuine battery charger for the D-Li90 batteries found on the 645Z, K-1, K-3, K-5, K-01 cameras. I need one as the K-3 I bought a while back didn't come with one and now it's gone to a new (temporary) home with my K-1 charger. I've got enough batteries I think to la...

A few budget items for sale
Is the Tokina an autofocus lens. ? It is...but no Mf ring as such. If you want to focus manually, you need to twist the whole barrel if that makes sense. The front element spins when focussing too...

White solinoid + more parts
And just to close the loop - the pins worked perfectly. The lens is now back up and running. Thank you :-) The last bit is the gold spring shaped contact that serves as a ground for the mount. Perfect - hope it works :-)
