I'm selling a knackered Tamron ADII 24mm f/2.5 (01B) lens with a knackered KA mount (I had thought I could get it to work but I've given up on it). Basically it doesn't work as a combination, the lens doesn't work with another mount and the mount doesn't work with another lens. Somebody better at tinkering might have more success.
The lens optics are OK, the focus is smooth but the aperture seems to always stop down to the minimum. Something is worn betwen the lens and mount (when removing from the camera the lens often disconnects from the mount first). I can't get my K-5 to recognise it as a KA lens and I'm not convinced it works as a basic K.
For spares/repair, £35 including UK postage.
