FS Pentax K20D + Katz Eye + L-Bracket + Extra Battery

Posted 26/08/2012 - 14:15 Link
In original Box with the following
- Katz Eye Split prism with OptiBrite and 1/4 grid
- Extra battery (Pentax Original)
- Kirk BL-K20 L Bracket
- Strap
- Charger
- Manuals that came along with the camera
- Original K20D focusing screen

The camera was never exposed to rain/inclement weather and has always been cared for. PM me if you need more info/pictures. I had this as a backup for my K5 and 645NII but carrying all three is not making much sense any more.

The KatzEye ($150 as of today) helped me plenty when composing and focusing in the field and studio esp. portraiture and macro without resorting to live-view and removing my eye from the viewfinder (Butterflies don't like movement and are easily scared); so I am leaving it mounted in the K20D, I will include the original K20D screen as well in the package.

Shutter actuations according to camerashuttercount.com is 7990
Asking price 280GBP/350Euro + shipping (ships out of Germany. Not sure how much it costs but will let us know on confirmation and your choice of shipping and insurance)

I appreciate you're looking to sell as a bundle, but I'd be interested in the Kirk bracket if you're looking to sell separately, and if so, how much please?

Hi John, as you have gathered I have plans to sell this off as a bundle and hence priced it low. But if this doesn't fly in the next 2 weeks, please PM me with a fair offer if you are still interested and the BL-K20 is yours.

Do you happen to know if the Katz Eye of the K20D also fits the K5 ?

BTW, I cannot PM you yet, as I don't have an account that is PM enabled. So, if you want to discuss the possibilities, please send me a PM (as I can reply to PMs without problems, but I cannot send them out).

Katz Eye list them separately on their site, so probably not.

Hi MarcelG,

JohnX is correct; The KatzEye fits K20D and K10 and not the K5.

Ok, thanks for the info. Too bad; if is were compatible, I would have found a purpose for this set. A friend of mine could use the K20D, I could use the Katz Eye on my K5.

Good luck with the sale!

MarcelG - As stated earlier, if this set doesn't sell in another week I plan to sell them separately. As stated earlier, the set might actually work out cheaper because I have priced it that way.

Not a mid or long term member but I'm very interested in the K20D. (See my post in new members.) I'm unable to send private messages yet but presumably I can receive them. Can you send me more details shutter count, age etc.
Thanks in advance.
