Being 70, and having Parkinson's forces me to sell some of my Pentax gear to fund something less heavy but just as satisfying.

In the first instance , I will list what I am seeking to sell. If any interest is generated, I will be happy to take and display the necessary photographs of each item.

All items have been looked after well and have not been dropped, knocked etc. All items offered for sale in good faith:-

Pentax K5 body - 11,830 shutter activations - as far as I can tell, in excellent condition. £195

Pentax AF160FC Macro Ring Flash, boxed (includes the storage case it came in and the outer Pentax cardboard box. , excellent condition - rarely used - £135

Pentax-F SMC 1.7x AF Adapter - enables non-AF lenses to focus as AF and operates as a conventional 1.7x lens converter at the same time. £239 (based on recent ebay completed deals) - excellent condition

... and now the bargain box, both in good condition (I am open to offers here):-
Pentax-M SMC 80mm-200mm zoom lens 1:4.5
Tamron 28mm-200mm AF LD 1:3.8-5.6 zoom lens - Pentax mount

Many thanks,

John

Ringflash sold to the quickest of three responders, subject to payment.

It could have sold three times in the first 15 minutes!

Nothing to do with me, looks like a shy buyer beat me to it. hope it went to a good home anyway, either that or it will end up on Ebay in a few weeks for a good deal more money

It has gone to a good home - someone who regrets part-exing his own AF160FC a short while ago (for less than this one)

It's the best Macro Flash I've ever used

I am reviving this thread as there was a lot of interest in the AF160FC, and as I have one coming up for sale I am testing the water for interest; having just done a google search I cannot find any for sale elsewhere.

I never did buy one as my Canon twin flash works fine on the K-1 but I may be interested depending on price ( unless Lenny has beaten me to it again )

Mike-P, after some searching I think a fair price is £300 + postage which is about what I paid for it from SRS in 2016.
