Hello everyone,

LENS IS SOLD !

I'm selling this lens, just a few months after buying it : I bought a DA* 16-50, so I'm no really using this lens anymore ...

This is a 43mm f1.9 limited, in very nice silver finish !
I'm not the original owner, and I've got no pouch for it.

The lens is in good condition, but it has a scratches on the lens cap, and comes with a skylight filter.

SOLD !

Thanks a lot mike !

A thanks a lot to Jessops too : I've just ordered a grip, and this week-end I ordered a 50-200 when it was at 30£ .... Huuuuuuuuuuuuuge savings !

Got mine yesterday, but it took more than a month ...

But cashback so gooood, there's no point complaining

Salut Benoit et bienvenue,

Je suis francais aussi

Or if your budget is very tiny, you could look for the Pentax 50-200, it's 50£ at Jessop's ...

At this price ....

No need for that, I'm living in England up to the end of January

the only problem is : wich lens to choose between the 16-45 and the 16-50 with a k20d ?
Is the 16-50 worth the extra cash ... It has many advantages (f2.8, SDM and Seals) but it's a lot of money (I would have taken the 17-70 if it was a bit cheaper)

BTW, talking about the 16-50, have you heard about the problems of this lens ?
In many french forum I've read that some 16-50 are not "good copies"
This makes me hesitate more ...

Thanks everyone ...

For the prices, on some lenses the price is a lower, and on some "kits" too (the k20d+16-50 is 100£ cheaper, without compting the rebate) ... and with the actual rebates (that we don't have in France ) and with the very competive prices at SRS .... it's quite tempting !

Thanks for your welcomes

Thanks richard for this !

(But the only mistake is that the Zenitar is a 16mm, not a 17mm ... )

Hello everyone,

I've just decided to join your wonderful site, after many hours of reading...

also, as you have might noticed in my title, I'm french
I'm a student currently living in England for an internship, and I've already planned to take advantage of the lower prices here !

I'm currently shooting with my K100d and some lenses : 18-55, 50-200, sigma 10-20, 43mm f1.9 ltd, S-Takumar 50mm f1.4, SMC-Takumar 85mm f1.8, SMC-Takumar 35mm f3.5, Zenitar 16mm fish-eye (not much using these last two )
But I've planned to change this body to a shiny K20d !

I enjoy to takes pictures of cars, but also landscapes...
