I'm really looking forward to getting up close and personal with some of those bugs and flowers.

OK - I will pay the RMSD.
That is £130 delivered - but selling/sending to UK only.

Owing to a distinct lack of use (and having this range covered by Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 and Sigma 10-20mm Zooms), I would like to sell or part-exchange my Samsung 16-45mm f4 zoom. This lens is almost identical to the Pentax 16-45mm f4 Zoom, but has a blue decorative band instead of a green one.
The lens is in excellent condition (and boxed - although the box is a little scruffy). This lens was originally owned by AndrewA (also on these forums) and then 7avensis7 - who I purchased it from in April 2013.
Asking for £130 (with buyer to pay RMSD).
I would consider a part exchange for an Autofocus capable Sigma, Tamron, Pentax or Samsung prime macro lens (of 70mm, 90mm or longer) in PKA/KAF fitting.
I would also consider a part exchange for a PKA/KAF fit manual- or auto-focus prime lens of 35mm or preferably wider.

Having just upgraded to a K5 and also after getting a refurbished blue k30 off Ebay, I now have a Kr that is very much surplus to requirements.
Cost will be £200 (I will pay RMSD).
Please note selling to UK only.
Payment by bank transfer or paypal (with buyer to pay fees of 3.4% + 20 pence).
Pentax Kr DSLR Camera (in black) with Samsung 18-55mm Zoom Lens (similar to Pentax 18-55mm kit lens but with a metal mount)
Comes with:
- 18-55mm Samsung zoom lens (KAF fit),
- (non Pentax) Battery
- Pentax charger,
- USB Cable,
- 4GB SD Card,
- Pentax Neck Strap.
Key Benefits:
- All lenses (even old manual ones) benefit from shift sensor image stabilisation. This means you are a bit more likely to get an un-blurred hand-held shot even with slightly longer shutter speed.
- Many photography modes to explore from Auto to full manual.
- High frame capture rate.
- This camera can capture video too.
Reviews:

Example Pentax Kr photos on Flickr or check out my Gallery or Flickr pages.
Camera is in excellent condition with an LCD screen cover from new and some spare LCD covers.
In common with most DSLRs, this camera does have a few dust specks in the viewfinder and/or on the focus screen, but these do not affect the photo image quality.
Photos and shutter count to follow.

As a newcomer to the forum, what does bump mean?
bump.
If you do sell or buy something via the forum - it is also good to see posts that show that the item has sold and that the kit was as described and that the buyer was happy.
Free BUMP to lancer for a great camera.
