I'm after, well I'm not totally sure here.

I'm using a K200D with a Sigma 18-50mm 2.8 lens but I'm after a fast 50mm lens.
An old manual focus one, as long as it is very fast, in excellent/mint condition and compatible with a K200D will do.

Many thanks!

Go on ebay!! Theres absolutely loads to go for. This is the best place I reckon. youd pick one up for anywhere between £20-£60.

Good luck

Thanks Pete.
I've had an offer from a member here, although nothing is in stone yet and he isn't too sure the lens' condition.
I'll have a look at e-bay, is there anything I should be looking for/avoiding?

Why a relatively long 50mm? Is it speed you want or focal length?

Hi Mike.

I want a 50mm, but I will also be in the market (at a later date) for a fast 28mm or 35mm lens as well.
I may even be in the market, later, for a fastish 300mm.
