FS three great SMCM primes 28/85/135 (FF!)

Sadly need to prune my amount of photo gear so starting by offering three great lenses, ready for that great FF body in the future

28/3.5 SMCM in superb shape. Optically mint and cosmetically only showing very minor signs of very careful use. Comes with front and rear caps plus Hoya skylight filter. Quite sought after and has a rather higher reputation than the more common 28/2.8. At 42mm equivalent on APSC it's an ideal walkabout standard lens. £60 incl insured postage

85/2 SMCM fabulous fast short telephoto. Again optically (and mechanically) superb and cosmetically in good shape. It has some minor brassing consistent with its age but clearly well cared-for. Comes with caps and Pentax hood. And I think I have the box too. These tend to go for silly money on EBay, but I think it's madness to charge more than the cost of a new Samyang! I think £170 incl insured postage is more realistic

135/3.5 SMCM lovely example in close to as new condition. Optically and mechanically great, one or two minor dust specs inside but nothing to worry about, cosmetically superb with only one or two tiny minor marks. Comes with caps (and built in hood). £45 incl recorded delivery

Happy to provide photos if you're interested - send me a pm!

Cheers,

Jon

Received the 85mm lens safe and sound.

Many thanks to Jon for the prompt postage and careful packaging.

Getting older and grumpier. Taking longer to decide which lens to use today.

A collection of manual primes to keep me in touch with the pleasures of doing it old-school.

Here's an endorsement for the M28mm F3.5 - what a great lens for not much money. I would not part with mine for £100, let alone £50!

Anyone who's remotely into landscape shooting should buy one of these.

What he said. It's probably the last MF lens I would part with. Works fine wide open if you want to be lazy and use it in Av mode for candid snaps!
