Selling this F* 300/4.5 as I ended up with two when looking for a replacement for the one I damaged.

Lens works well and as it should. Front element glass is clean, no spots or cleaning marks. Rear element glas has a very small coating spot but I cannot see anything in the images, even trickier to get a shot showing it. No scratches or cleaning marks or such. No oil on blades, snappy aperture, no fungus but has a few dust specs inside. Barrel has signs of use, see images.
Has original caps front and rear and the original Pentax dedicated case SS 10-22.

530.00 GPB
626.00 EUR
667.00 USD
or equivalent

Insured and trackable shipping is 30.00 GBP/35.00 EUR with Swedish PostNord

If I didn't already own one this would be mine!

You even have the ultra rare tripod foot, this is a steal!!!!!

I don't have a case for it either.

Here is what it can do... I hope you don' mind me putting an image in...

Thanks for the comments nocturnal. Yes, these lenses are indeed something. I was devastated when I cracked the front glass on the one I had and just had to get another (ending up with two...) As for your bird shot, very nice!

Oh yes I remember you now.

I'll also mention that the F*300 has an aperture ring, hence you can use it with film cameras. I used it with an MX recently with the SE focussing screen. The negatives are incredible never mind just the joy of looking through the big cinematic viewfinder on the MX!!! This is the reason why I chose this lens rather than the DA* 300. Hope this speeds up your sale
