Pentax 400-600mm

Hi!

I got a SMC Pentax Reflex Zoom F8-12 400-600mm, but miss the hood and front cover.....

Anyone hvo can help me with this?

It seems to be 67mm treading...

Thanks!

Hello,

It's going to be very difficult, nay virtually impossible, to find a hood as the lens is no longer made.

However, if you are using it on digital, the original hood would be unnecessarily wide anyway.

I should have a look around for a generic hood for a 500mm lens. Use a step-up or step-down ring if necessary.

This would be better than nothing:

And a Pentax cap is available on this very site:

I could sell them to you, unfortunately the price may be rather high as it would include lens, case, rear filters &c &c.

That's a loose term..

But as you also have the lens, what do you think of it? Is it in use?
