Your chance to own the incredible HD Pentax D FA* 50mm f1.4 SDM AW - with all original accessories (Hood, Soft Case, Caps, Box) in excellent condition. It is quite simply the best lens I have ever used, great for portraits, pseudo-macro, landscapes, it has transformed my view of a 50mm lens from one that only occasionally gets put in the bag to absolute first choice.

If you haven't seen any reviews then over at PentaxForums the number of top class reviews is rather telling...

You've probably seen samples of what it can do, but if you haven't then there's a few images in this mini Flickr album of images taken in the last few days...

There is some PP - mainly shadows/highlights, etc - I have removed the default sharpening from LightRoom on most of them to show the native sharpness as best I can.

If its the best lens you have ever used, why are you selling may I ask?

Is it from SRS Lenny ? (as in the remainder of the 2 year warranty is still valid)

That did go through my mind! Hope you get whatever you need the money for sorted!

I forgot about the SRS thing - I have the receipt from SRS somewhere, can't remember how the transfer thing works though!

I think they are quite relaxed about it as long as both the buyer and seller are forum members and you have the receipt.
