Pentax DA*60-250 f4. Owned since 2010. Marvellous lens, absolutely criminally underrated. On motor No.2 and is working well with no hesitation.

Not been inclined to remove the baffle to allow it unrestricted full-frame use. Excellent condition apart from signs of wear on tripod collar knob and tripod foot. Boxed, with caps, hood and case.

Asking £450 - I think this is a fair price for a lens that retails for >£1000

Item located in SW London

SRS have my old one

DA*60-250 f4 still available - in spite of what was said originally - price is firm. £450 including postage to UK....

I particularly like no.3

Yes, it is pretty good, just used it at a work event......I thought that the FA* was a tough act to follow but if I can't use filters on it then it's no use unfortunately.

Would've preferred Sarah Keith-Lucas doing the weather report....

Yesterday I bought the DFA24-70, replacing FA*28-70 and DA*16-50

Missed it by 1-week, I went there to collect my DFA24-70 and take in 3 lenses for trade-in.... The Samsung 12-24 and DA*16-50 will hopefully find new homes, I was reluctant to part with the FA*28-70 2.8 but the rotating front element makes it useless with filters..

Did get some left over goodies (bag and book), a really nice chat with Chris and the staff

We really do need to sing the praises of the dealers who continue to support our beloved brand louder and louder; the service I have got over the years from SRS, Cambrian and Grays (yes I know it is exclusively Nikon) persuades me to remain loyal to the bricks and mortar....

Which camera body do you have George? If it's not the K-1 then the TC issue is a non-issue. With the K-1 you can select crop mode, so it become a non-issue and suddenly gain another another 150 mm so it effectively becomes a 630mm f5.6........but a 16MP image.

12-24 and 16-50 went through P-Ex today.

So that leaves the DA*60-250 f4.
