I have one of the highly regarded yet fairly uncommon Pentax M series 150mm f3.5 lenses for sale. Cosmetically it is good, there's quite a bit of paint wear around the aperture ring but optically it's very good - with minimal dust and no known issues.

An unusual focal length, preferred by some over the traditional 135mm - I think it's a better lens and is quite usable at maximum aperture (although stopping down one stop is excellent).

Here's a few few photos with it (the first is at f3.5)...

Have you got a secret stash of these you are selling off? K.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

After I sold my last one (you remember that ) I regretted it so got another - I won't regret it this time because I've got the F 135/2.8 which gets far more use and I'm reducing my manual focus lens collection down to a bare minimum

I'm liking your routine use of a Fonseca port box for showing lens quality. Shows a discerning taste... consistent with your lens recommendations

Great lens for someone.

Yep - Fonseca is one of my favourites This one happens to be on a shelf in the greenhouse so is a useful focus and quality test whether it's sunny or raining
