Hi all

Following my recent post announcing this sale, here is the complete list of items for sale.

All items in perfect working order and come boxed. P&P not included – will depend on how many items you buy...

Photos of each item available on request, but too many to post here at once...

Camera body:

Pentax K-7 (£450)
It has never been used in extreme dust, heat, cold etc, always very carefully cared for. Shutter count: 14,000.

Comes with additional INOV8 camera battery, Verbatim 8gb class 6 SD card, Adata 16gb 8gb class 6 SD card and shutter remote control

Optional extra: Samsonite camera case (£7)

Further memory cards are also available, let me know if interested

Or will do the camera body with both kit lenses for £550

Lenses and filters:

All come with caps, hoods and boxes unless stated otherwise. All have only been used with filters, so glass is in perfect condition.

Pentax DA 18-55mm WR (£50)

Also: 52mm thread HOYA UV filter (£10), 52mm HOYA Pro-1 circular polarising filter (£25)

Pentax DA 50-200 WR (£85)

Also: unbranded 49mm UV filter (free)

Samsung Schneider 12-24mm (£450)

This is identical to the Pentax 12-24mm, only that it says Samsung and has a blue instead of a green ring. Great value is the Samsung badged version seems to sell for less!

Also: Jessops 77mm UV filter (£20)

Sigma 30mm f1.4 (£275)

Also: Marumi 62mm DHG lens protect (£10)

Comes with padded protective Sigma case

Pentax FA 50mm f1.7 (£225)

This lens does not come with a hood or the box (but does have both caps). Also included is a TORA 49mm UV filter (free).

Also available: Lowepro padded case, will fit all but the Sigma and the Samsung (£10)

Flash:

Pentax AF360Ghz with leather case, Stofen Omnibounce diffuser and mini flash stand (£150)

Hardly used.

Pentax AF540Ghz with protective case, unbranded Omnibounce diffuser and mini flash stand (£250)

Only occasionally used outdoor, with some usage for indoor portrait shoots

Other:

Opteka fisheye adapter (£25)

This “fisheye” effect adaptor works well with the 18-55mm to create fisheye images. It is only really sharp in the middle, so not suitable for serious work, but for the very low price, it’s a great alternative to spending hundreds on a proper fisheye lens!

Hi all, thanks for the PMs and posts here. Glad to see there's some interest out there! I'll be back in touch, but if not by this Friday, then it will be after next Friday (15 July), as I'm away that week.

Cheers

Hi all

Sadly I'm having to sell my Pentax gear, which has served me very well, as I need to go full frame.

It's not for say just yet, as I'm buying bits and bobs for the new system so need to keep this until I've got all that I need... but I will be selling during July.

Prices will be based on eBay going rates, but if anyone is interested let me know and I'll DM you before listing on eBay...

All in excellent condition, and comes with box, instructions etc.

K-7 body

Samsung 12-24 (with hood)
Sigma 30mm (with case and hood)
Pentax 18-55 WA (with hood and polarising filter)
Pentax AF 1.7
Pentax 50-200mm (with hood and case)
All have front and rear caps and UV filters

Pentax AF360 and AF540, both with cases

My next post will include prices and other details, but this is just a heads up first...

Cheers!

Can anyone recommend a beauty dish to fit an AF360?

I'm also in the market at some stage for a light meter, but I want one specifically that will measure flash light for me.

I'm not so good on these technicalities - can anyone advise me of what radio bits I need to make the meter, flash and camera all speak to each other? And any particular products to recommend?

I have a K-7 by the way.

Thanks in advance...

thanks KZ. i've ordered a second hand FA 50mm lense so i'll see how i go... the dpreview analysis of the lenses was amazingly useful. i want good bokeh but price + autofocusing was the clincher. so far...

thank you very much for all your excellent input. particularly those ebay links.

greytop / mike p - how do you find the autofocus on the F and FA lesnes, compared to, for example, the recent WR kit lenses?

mr cynical - brilliant breakdown of pros and cons, thank you. portability is less of a priority for me than sharpness and focusing.

sounds like none are too bad, so much will depend on price i think.

this forum really is handy for getting quick answers to technical questions
