Sorry to resurrect this post but I'm just here to say goodbye.
I have just sold my camera and all lenses to MPB.
Never posted much in my time here other than this section to buy a good few lenses from you friendly bunch, so didn't feel it warranted a brand new post
Thanks to all the people who played a part in expanding my Pentax world.
Keep safe, keep happy and keep shooting!
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Good luck on your journey lad.
I've noticed there's a bunch of reasonably priced Pentax goodies just appeared on MPB, maybe some of them are yours. Worth checking out I would say!
Mike.

At one time I would have been all over that .... lovely, very rare lens.
Anyway, I'm jealous but couldn't afford it anyway.
Have fun! K.

Been there since June (was £249) - I think the lower price is due to the dust inside - the images don't look too bad but it's not always possible to tell the extent from a few photos !
As for the dust, I don't think I've ever seen a lens that didn't have some dust, even brand new lenses can exhibit signs of dust. However, someone with the correct tools and a modicum of DIY skill should be able to perform a cleaning operation without difficulty and return the lens to tip-top condition. I've generally found that dust tends to effect the front and rear lenses more than internal lens blocks and the front and rear glass is usually more accessible and easier to deal with.
Even so, perhaps lens tinkering should be avoided by the faint hearted.
