Excellent condtion, body displays no rub marks, scratches or dings. There is one tiny mark on the LCD but is barely noticeable and certainly doesnt impair use. Shutter count is 18650 clicks.

Bought brand new by myself from Clifton Cameras in March 2011. Excellent performer and built like a tank, fully weather sealed and is compatible with every Pentax lens ever made. It has also been fitted with a split prism/microprism focussing screen to help if using manual focus (I will also include the original screen in the sale).

Comes boxed with body cap, charger, 2 batteries (one original, one energizer, both 1860mah), aftermarket grip (apart from jog wheel being slightly temperamental, shutter fires every time and green and AF buttons work fine too), CD's, Manual, original Pentax strap (never used).

I will also include in the sale, a manual Rikenon XR 50mm f2 (fantastic 50mm lens, tack sharp) and a Helios 58mm f2 M42 lens (although you will need an M42 adapter to use it).

Asking £375 Delivered for the lot. Will consider a straight swap for a minty D90. Will accept PPG but BT preferable.

£250 for a 50mm f1.8? No thanks. You should be getting towards f1.4 territory for that kind of money.

It's all about price v performance. For £80 the Nikon equivalent is exceptional. Will the quality of the pentax be £170 better? I doubt it. The Canon and Nikon "nifty-fifties" have, like it or not, set the pricing benchmark for 50mm lenses.

Nice. The DA35mm is a cracking little lens for the money. Had one, sold it, wouldn't mind another. Clifton have a mint one for £99 that i've had my eye on, but i've got to sit on my hands at times like these!!

Pictures to follow....

This is the new version with the smooth non-rubberised coating. Fantastic lens, excellent condition. Bought off these forums a couple of months ago. Don't really want to sell but don't have much choice (thanks Orange)

Asking £270 delivered to UK mainland (this excludes NI)
