FS SMC M 100mm f2.8, DA 55-300

Now surplus to requirements:

100mm SMC M f2.8 w pentax caps, original pentax plastic clip-on hood.
Perfect working order, snappy iris and smooth focus. Does have wear signs of a lens that has actually been used! Ie pulled in and out of a bag. So cosmetically not 'mint' but silvered-off paint on some of aperture ring etc. Certainly not dinged or optics scratched in any way! Had a UV PL or skylight on the front all of its life. 100 2.8 DFA macro on the way so this needs to go.

DA 55-300. Not the HD one, not the WR one, not the L one, the 'other one'.
This is near-mint in every way. With caps and original hood. Just never really got into this for some reason - very little used. Also always had a filter on the front all its life so front element pristine as you can imagine.

Neither in original box but will wrap up well.

Based in East Sussex if anyone wants to lay eyes on them. Just took some 'nothing shots' in the back garden with these on my K30 to demonstrate they're in fine fettle so I can send those to anyone interested.

100 - £90
55-300 - £120

Add a nominal fiver to either for p&p to UK only, thanks for looking.

If I didn't already have one I'd snap-up that M100/2.8. It is one of my favourite lenses and is very highly recommended. Good luck with the sale.

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

@womble - yes I really like the colour rendition. It has a depth somehow. But I can't justify keeping it with the DFA on the way. My next tussle will be can I justify having both the M 50/1.7 and the K 55/2/. They definitely render differently but then again...

Zoom now gone 100mm f2.8 still available.

Anyone wants to take this off my hands before I put it on fleabay, I'll throw in a handful of b&w filters if wanted: green portrait, orange, whatever else is in my bag.
