Mandatory is not a good way to go. If members want to state their locations then they will be able to do so intheir profiles, but it is entirely up to them.

I wouldn't try and force anything and I wouldn't have it repaired as the value of the item is far less than the cost of repair.

Thanks all, I just sold a Power Zoom lens on eBay and the buyer reported back it was faulty. It turns out that, as we now have confirmed, the problem is that the K200D does not support Power Zoom.

Can someone confirm whether or not the K200D supports Power Zoom?

Not many genuine Pentax 28mm primes seem to have been sold
It would have been one of the most popular focal lengths and I'm sure there are more 28mm lenses in existence than most other primes apart from the 50mm and 135mm ones.

If there aren't many on eBay, then it must be because nobody wants to sell them. 35mm lenses are rarer (certainly from the 1970s onwards) as the 28mm took over and the 35mm ones were generally more expensive when new.

I would want the genuine Pentax hood - faster to use and perfect for the lens - so I wouldn't buy one without a hood unless the price was low enough to afford a Pentax hood as well.

Much of this reputation is based on the era of film, so digital might be a different things altogether.
