For Trade - Metz 58 AF-1

Bought a Metz 58 AF-1 on a whim just before xmas and to be honest I now realise I have no need for it as my Pentax 360 flash does all that I need and I dont require all the bells and whistles on the Metz.
It is all boxed and has never actually been used, just opened to make sure the unit was in there.

Looking to trade for something interesting lens wise .. the unit is in the UK and I will be back in less than a fortnight so could sort something out then if anyone is interested.

Hi Mike, Have nothing to trade but if you were looking to sell I could be interested. If so pm me with a price.
Cheers

Which lenses would you call 'interesting' Mike?

Well if you aren't using that 180mm macro ....

Actually probably something in the AF macro line would be handy as I only have manual lenses (Apart from a Sigma 50mm EX DG which I never use as its too short for my liking).

Nice try Mike. I'll not be parting with that one any time soon I'm afraid.

Somebody on here was selling a 100mm Macro recently. I think it was the D-FA version so it'll suit film too.

BTW: AF and macro is more of a hindrance than a benefit. I only ever use MF doing macro.

But you don't only use it for macro, Pete. Ill take the AF anyday.

Go on tell Mike you will lend him that 180mm for a month in exchange for that flash. Fair swap I reckon

I think it should be permanent.
After all, Peters son is a Canon user so he will have no use for it in years to come.

Sounds like you have Pete with one leg in the grave already

I wonder if he will part with that 12-24 or 31mm before he karks it :

As long as that lens doesn't go in as well ....

Well as we are sharing out his equipment I would also like ....

Come on guys, there's plenty of life in this old dog yet.

I won't swap, I won't, I won't, I won't, I won't, I won't. So there.

So I can take that as a Maybe?

You mean . . . I don't only have to use it for Macro? If only I'd known.

Mike, if you get anywhere near Murcia before you return to UK, you are welcome to try it out . . . and drool.
