Not sure if I should post this here...

I'm currently thinning out my gadgets and lenses. There's a load of filters, some Pentax Extension Tubes, an M42-K mount adaptor. I will be adding an SMC Pentax lens or two (sad to see them go), and a Sigma telezoom later in the week.

The link is here: http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQgotopageZ1QQsassZpuzzleQ5fboxQQsorecordsperpageZ50...

(Hope this is useful!)

Well, I'll certainly be checking it out! I can't resist lenses, if anyones noticed I do tend to accumulate them....

What I am looking for is a nice 50mm A series lens, if anyone wants to offer me one I'm listening! (It would be more user friendly on my new *istDS)
Best regards, John

Ok all, the lenses are up there now (it's been a mad mad week and had hoped to get them posted earlier).

There's a Sigma 70-300, a Pentax SMC-F 35-70 and a Pentax SMC-F 28mm/f2.8

(So sad to see them go but they don't get nearly enough use these days. I'm sure someone can find them a good home )

G'day Matt.
Will you post to Australia?

Also...You wouldn't have a grip strap FDp for a Z-1 laying around some where that you would part with?

Hooroo.

So sorry Trevor... don't think that's possible If I can find a cost effective way, I'll let you know.

Ah, the elusive grip. Again, sorry but I haven't got one of those either.

Someone has put up an SMC-F autofocus 50mm/f1.7 up:

(I have this lens, and it's razor sharp, especially with an HMC Pro 1 UV filter on )

Glad to report I've finally managed to find that nice 50mm, actually a SMC Pentax-A 50mm f2, lovely condition, and the right price because it was listed as a Chinon CM4s body and the lens attached to it was only in there in the small print....

I was beginning to think I wouldn't find one, because the A series lenses seem to be commanding high prices just now. I suspect DSLR users are finding that a relatively fast 50mm does rather nicely as a portrait lens, and also offers splendid quality for a low (ish) outlay!

Actually, an equivalent to a 75mm lens is quite a useful short tephoto for landscape work as well.
Best regards, John

Thanks for the link Matt.
But Like Kimbo said...pointless without the strap.
Thanks anyway.
Hooroo.

Well just so you know, i have one pz-1p with the grip+ the strap, and another pz-1p without. Its the extension itself that makes all the difference- the strap is "ok" but feels awkward to me. It reminds me of the strap you would see on a camcorder or the like.

I still have the strap and will never use it... if someone wants it, email me at [email protected] and within reason i will mail it for a small charge(enough to cover UPS or similar shipping).

PS - if anyone knows where to get another handgrip please email at the same above address.
Thanks
