I'll offer the Amazon (UK) price, but as I have numerous types and prices available for 2 mounts to choose from . . . it's up to you if you want a bird in the hand.
You should have taken that offer, Peter.

Good lens. I've got three f1.7's and an f2. Not sure why.
Because you did have 4 and I bought one off you!
Yes, good lens. I use it (now and again) on my K-r and it works very well.

For sale is my DA 55-300mm lens which I bought new from SRS in November 2011 (receipt included). Includes box, soft pouch and all original papers.

The lens has had very little use and is in excellent condition. The only reason I'm selling it is because I have recently purchased a DA*300 and this lens could do with a new home where it won't feel so neglected!

I am asking £195 (ovno) which includes recorded delivery and insurance from here in France to anywhere in the EU. To France would be slightly cheaper! I am also going to list this on a French site.

Here are some photos. Please ask any questions or for more photos if you are seriously interested.

For a sinner who wants to repent, he looks rather smug!

I use the K28/3.5 all the time. It's my "go to" lens because it is just so good. Mind you, it is the widest lens I have at the moment due to my 10-20 being repaired, but I would still use it a lot all the same.

Not so much 50, but I use the K55/1.8 or Super Tak 55/1.8 for mushrooms and the like. The M50/1.7 is also good for flowers.

Andrew - I think most people that have problems similar to yours are all using a Microsh*t operating system, which will not recognise the .bin file as part of it's array of tools, thus you will always be redirected to a Microcrap website that will point you in the direction of a site that offers (often unneccessary) software that will assist in using a given unrecognized file type.
Didn't have that problem myself........
