Pentax SMC 24mm f2.8

I have an excellent condition Pentax SMC 24mm f2.8 (K) for sale, optically superb, a small amount of dust and one tiny coating mark (better than you might expect for its age). nice smooth focus action, snappy and clean aperture operation - I'm selling simply because I've now got an A series version (plus an FA*) which I believe is optically the same.

here's a few images of it and with it (click on the image to see a larger version):

Nope - but you've given me a good reason to take some at the weekend - watch this space

Yes and the results seem similar to the later 'A' series (to me anyway) - and I'm getting to know that one as its replacement now

I used one of these lenses for a long time, and it's an excellent performer.
Best regards, John

Took it out for a walk today, and the first few images in this Flickr album are the result (not too many traditional landscapes, but some "townscapes"):

This is one of my favourites...
