Pay-day (ish) bump! Some lovely little bits of kit left over.

I can't see why the A series 50mm macro hasn't moved. This is a stunning lens -- you can put extension tubes on it and you can put a rear converter on it too. It's as good as a walk-around as it is for macro. Put it on a K1 and its resolution is amazing.
Agreed, and this one is in stellar condition and has a silky focus (and box)! It's a beautiful lens but I really am in a drive to consolidate my 'stash'. I've taken some beautiful (in my opinion) photos with this lens too. I can't see why the A series 50mm macro hasn't moved.

Pentax SMC-M 50mm f/1.4. - £70
Pentax SMC-A 50mm f/2.8 Macro (boxed). - £105
Pentax SMC-M 135mm f/3.5. - £25
Sigma Super-Wide 24mm f/2.8 (in PK/A mount). Some small tendrils of fungus under the front-most element that I'm yet to clean. Comes with the Sigma 'Perfect Hood' and a leather case. - £30
Industar 50-2 (50mm f/3.5) in M42 mount. £15
Minolta MD 50mm f/2. - £20
Helios 44-2 in M42 mount. Some cleaning marks to front element, some small scratches on barrel. Can't remember if the focus feels 100% at the short end. - £30
A lovely little diaplan 80mm f/3.5 projector lens adapted to Sony FE mount (covers full frame). £45
S1a with ASAHI light meter - bought from our own Danofmk. Described as working but appears to act as a 'bulb' shutter at speeds less than 1/30s. If you press the shutter quickly at e.g. 1s, however, it will shutter for the 1s. Not sure why but thought worthwhile mentioning for clarity. Looking to recover what I paid. - £20
Voigtlander Ultron 40mm f/2 with close-up lens in PK/A mount. Recently had to buy a replacement close-up lens which is perfect, but will send the second if I find it in the house at any point. £350
Takumar 50mm f/1.4 (7 Element). Excellent with yellowing. - £60
Still have the A35-70 and M75-150 free with any purchase of the above.
Offers welcome! Prices including postage.

Mamiya sold and safely received by the buyer.
Little bump. As above, offers very welcome. Discounts definitely available for purchases of multiple items.
