Pentax SMC-M 50mm f/1.4. - £80 NOW £70
Pentax SMC-A 50mm f/2.8 Macro. - £120 NOW £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. - £40 NOW £30
Industar 50-2 (50mm f/3.5) in M42 mount. £15
Minolta MD 50mm f/2. - £20
Mamiya 55mm f/1.4 in M42 mount. Excellent condition, radioactive front element with some yellowing. £125 NOW £110
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
Jupiter-9 85mm f/2 in M42 mount. Some cleaning marks on the front element, if I recall correctly. Focus is a little stiff so might be worthwhile CLA'ing it. - £70 NOW £65
A lovely little diaplan 80mm f/3.5 projector lens adapted to Sony FE mount (covers full frame). £45
Pentax MX - CLA'd by Asahiphoto around a year ago. Lights flicker slightly when changing shutter speeds but otherwise functions flawlessly. CLA cost £110 so I'm looking to recover that cost only - £110
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. - £30 NOW £20
Kiron 28mm f/2 in PK/A mount. - £50
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. £370 NOW £350
Takumar 50mm f/1.4 (7 Element). Excellent with yellowing. - £70 NOW £60
Zoom lenses are still available with purchases. Prices still do not include postage.
Open to reasonable offers and discounts for multiple purchases.

Pentax MX I'll hold off selling for now as I need to, at least, exhaust a roll of film in there.
Photos uploaded aren't of everything. If there are any I've missed that people might be interested in, let me know.

Sorry all, I realise the distinct lack of pictures isn’t exactly helpful. I have an open day today at work I’ll get some pictures up after that.

49mm. It’s the Japan one that has been reputed for zero distortion.Does the Minolta lens have a 55mm or 49mm filter ring? I ask because there are three different versions apparently.
