I saw new for £130, used in the pentaxforuns for $110 and $150. This one is basically like new with the adaptor.

Am I overpricing?

Hi.

I've got a Tammy adaptall-2 90mm on loan from the photo club, and prefer that to the cosina. Its better wide open but the difference isn't much stopped down. However working in MF feels much better for macro, so when I eventually buy one (I'll use the tammy for free as long as possible) it'll have to be a MF lens.

The lens is in excellent/mint condition.






Comes with both caps and 1:1 macro adaptor.
The adaptor comes in a crystal case not shown.



Price is £75 posted. £80 tracking and insured.
I reckon its an appropriate price from a quick consultation.
Please warn me if I'm way of the mark.

EDIT: Very clean body and glass. Full refund, within a week of receiving the item, if item not as described. You pay postage. Refund valid if you pay tracking and insurance.
Note to self: work on product photography skills

I'm starting to gather some gear form buying camera + lenses lots.
I suppose this happens to many of us.
Those small bits and pieces we dont really use and are hard to sell could easily be put here for trade or give away.

For example straps, shutter cords, a P30n no one wants (:cry...

I recently got a small, lighweight, Jessops Atlantic 3PQ (?) tripod which is kind of nice, but I dont trust it with my K10D and most of my lenses. Its not for me, but could suit someone else. Trade?

Hi.
In my K10D I need to boost the diopter all the way to the maximum, whiach according to the manual is +1.5.
I want this for my MX as well.

If anyone has one to spare, drop me a line.

Cheers.

Try the mflenses.com or manualfocus.org forums, they have many manual focus lenses with lots of people into repairs, so they might have parts.

I did use one of those cheap chinese screen for a bit. Too dark, not the blackout problem, that allways happens. Just too dark all the time.
I think I did evertyhing allright, but I'll check.

I think it'll have to be Katzeyes with optibright for me... Ouch my wallet.

I'm thinking you are right about the misalignments. I hadn't use anything very fast in AF, and certainly not close (shallower DoF).
Although it puzzles me why it would be wrong if in the viewfinder it shows up correctly... Is the viewfinder at a different distance than it should be from the mirror?

The focus indicator and me seem to agree, so no problem there.

I think the focus indicator does a pretty good job when it beeps (just some time it doesn't beep...)
I checked my diopter, its correct. I checked my decision against focus detector... same result:

With SMC-A 50mm F1.7 @F2 (I believe) trying to focus on the "78".



With the Tokina SD 70-210mm F4-5.6 @F4 trying to focus on the "0.5"



You can see its focusing in front of what it should. Not a very exact test though, no 45 degree angle and they were hand-held. But that's beside the point... It shouldn't do that should it?

I got this one together with a Tokina DS 70-210mm which I want to check out.
The camera is working properly as far as I can see. Winder works, shutter fine, light meter ok, light seals intact.
Comes with a Rikenon 50mm F2.
The camera is in very good condition, no noticeable brassing, no dents.










Price is £15 plus postage.

The focus indicator comes up, it seems focused to me (although I do wear glasses and really need the diopter adjustment.
It doesnt focus on the spot it should.

I'll do some shots to show with different lenses.
