Now I see it

Good luck with the sale - it will be an extremely good buy for someone

Would be helpful to mention your asking price George.

I have one and to anyone thinking of getting the 300 you won't regret it

K-5 magnificent camera for the price - a real step change from the predecessors. The K10D and K20D were real game-changers for Pentax, people were underwhelmed by the K-7, same sensor but outperformed by the Kr and K-x 12MP in many areas.

Another interested in the 15, 55 and 1.7x

FYI - I believe DA-L 55-300 did not come with hood as standard.

That is good news. Unfortunately my local Jessops in Peterborough remains closed. Still a smaller chain of stores that are competitive and profitable will be a good thing as at present it is quite difficult to see and handle a Pentax camera before purchase unless you live in a large conurbation.
Are 'Young's Cameras' still going? I remember buying my F35-70 from there many years ago......that was when Tecno were still at Queensgate.

Another DA* fan here, more so since my 16-50 and 60-250 had new SDM motors.

I can't compare them with my Nikkors but I can compare my 300s....

One focusses faster and more accurately but the other has that bite...when the DA*300 locks on it's sharp and brilliant.

The other 2 DA*s are brilliant too, they've replaced a number of lenses including Sigma EXs and the famous FA24-90 - I have no regrets.

BUY IT!

This Peter Jones (me) would have given his money if he had the other Peter Jones' money to Cecil Jacobs...

Let's hope the new Jessops is like the Jessops we all used to know and love.
