FS: SMC PENTAX DA 70mm f2.4 Ltd

I'm offering for sale my Pentax DA 70mm f2.4 Ltd which is in excellent condition with totally clear optics and a good snappy iris, no marks or damage whatsoever and a smooth turning focus ring. No autofocus issues. Compact and lightweight and produces very sharp images. Boxed (the box is a little worn round the edges) and complete with front and rear caps, lens hood and Pentax leatherette pouch.

Reason for sale is that my go-to lenses for 95% of my photography are the 20-40 Ltd and the 50-135 DA*. I find I'm just not using the 70mm Ltd, excellent though it is.

Realistically priced to sell at £245 to include insured RMSD.

Weekend bump

Bump.

Still hoping to sell to a fellow enthusiast on this forum before I leave for France at the weekend.

If not sold it will go on Gumtree/Ebay when I return in May.

hi,
would you consider a trade with my SMC Pentax-F 35-105mm F4-5.6 lens?thanks...

Hi happyprince. Thanks but that trade would not interest me. The 35-105 is not a lens I need. I'm really after a cash sale. The only trade that might tempt me is a Pentax D-FA 100mm f2.8 WR macro.

PM sent. Hope to hear from you.

The Pentax DA 70mm f2.4 Ltd lens is now SOLD to forum member Pelle51. Many thanks Per.

That is the last of the lenses and filters I have placed for sale in the PU Classifieds in the past few weeks. ALL SOLD to forum members. Many thanks to all who have shown an interest.

Still 100% Pentax loyal and no thoughts of jumping ship, as several seem to be doing recently. I see Ricoh taking great strides with Pentax, against all odds, and I'm optimistic that the Pentax name will regain the status it had when I bought my first Spotmatic more than 40 years ago.

If anyone is considering parting with their Pentax D-FA 100mm f2.8 WR macro or perhaps a Pentax-fit Sigma 105mm f2.8 EX DG macro HSM version please pm me. I should say that I will not buy from outside the UK (no doubt that contravenes some barmy Brussells ruling but I don't give a fig!).

Jim

Just to add to Jim's post to say that the lens has arrived - very well packed and in great condition; as new. Works lovely! So, I can really recommend buying from Jim, all very professional and quick. Many thanks Jim!
