£89.00 - It seems like a really good buy, It wasn't off ebay it was from Carmarthen Cameras, they've got a good selection of used lenses, especially pentax. Before I bought it I tried to look for it on ebay as I find that most lenses appear on there in one form or another! But I couldn't see it on there anywhere.
I've not had my K-m long, the fact that I can find these old lenses and use them on it is a huge plus point for me - it may take a little more work to get a good shot, focusing manually and ajusting the aperture ring - but thats a part of the fun for me
The 'focus confirm' feature appears to work on most manual lenses, which also makes it much easier get your object in focus - makes things much easier. Plus using the lens in manual mode - pressing the av button will give you the correct shutter speed, I don't know if other brands have this feature when using old lenses? but it works really well.
Do you have any shots taken with this lens that I could see?
