For sale I have my Pentax K5 and various lenses (and a flash too).

1) Pentax K5 and third party battery grip. The K-5 is in perfect working order. Cosmetically there are a few scratches here and there but certainly nothing significant. The battery grip works in terms of vertical shutter and dial etc, however the battery contained within the grip is more often than not, not detected by the camera. That aside, it functions as you would expect - useful in portrait mode. Shutter count is 52607. Comes boxed with charger/cables/body cap and spare battery. Looking for £300 posted.

2) Sigma 105mm EX DG Macro. Optically absolutely no defects at all and i've had great results from this lens. The lens hood has been dropped once or twice (it can be fiddly screwing it on the lens - no bayonet fit) so around the edges of the hood a little of the finish is scraped away, but other than that, it's in good condition. Comes with front/rear caps & lens hood. Looking for £220 posted.

Here's a recent shot taken with this lens (and the K5 on sale here):

3) Sigma 10-20 mm f4-5.6 EX DC. I've loved this lens ever since I bought it, and never been disappointed with it. It's condition is good (I can't find anything worth mentioning). Looking for £220 posted. Comes with front/rear caps and lens hood.

Here's a shot I recently took with this lens:

4) Tamron 17-50 f2.8. I've had 2 copies of this lens in my time, and this is the better. It's given me superb results. I do not have a lens hood for it unfortunately, but it does come with a UV filter. Nothing negative to report in terms of its condition. Comes with front/rear caps and box. Looking for £220 posted.

Here's a recent shot taken with this lens:

5) Pentax DAL 55-300. I've always been impressed with results from this lens. It does have a tiny scratch on the front element which does not affect the images (look at the images of the lens so you can see it). I should also add that when the lens uses the full length of it's focus range it can sound a little odd sometimes. This has always been the case ever since I first owned it a few years back, and it remains solely an audible thing only - the lens performs perfectly. I've used it throughout the time I've had it, and it's never let me down. I also have a lens hood for it (the DAL version doesn't actually come with one). Comes with front and rear caps. Looking for £100 posted.

Here's a shot I recently took with this lens:

6) M 50mm 1.7. A good example of this lens, nothing negative to report. Looking for £30 posted.

7) Samsung SEF 36PZF. Identical to the Pentax AF360FGZ. The flashgun does still work, but the base section was knocked and sharred away a bit. I've been in touch with Johnsons Photopia and the entire base section can be purchased for just £30(it's attached with mini screws - very easily replaced). Looking for £30 posted, and with a further £30 you can get it fully operational again.
